Inspired Teaching Demonstration School
School Partnership Exhibition
Community Exhibition
This exhibition is on view at Inspired Teaching Demonstration School at 200 Douglas St NE, Washington, DC
ArtLinks, The Phillips Collection’s multi-visit school partnership program, enhances students’ classroom learning through arts integration. In fall 2023, the Phillips Education Department worked with Inspired Teaching Demonstration School staff to create a project that included a professional development session with upper school teachers, a tour of African Modernism in America, 1947-67, and art-making that connected to the school curriculum. Inspired by Manyolo Estella Betty’s Cattle People, students created mixed-media projects that incorporated the art-making traditions of the Bahima people of Uganda, while reflecting on current environmental issues. These artworks are displayed at ITDS this fall.
