Our 1st and 2nd graders traded the classroom for the gallery last week at the Frist Art Museum! ✏️🎨
They spent the morning exploring International Surrealism from Tate: Fifty Years of Dreams, a collection of roughly 125 paintings, photographs, and sculptures on loan from the Tate in the UK, featuring artists like Salvador Dalí, René Magritte, Joan Miró, and Dorothea Tanning. Our Knights got an up close look at how these artists turned dreams, imagination, and the unexpected into art.
After taking it all in, they headed to Martin ArtQuest to make their own surrealist creations, painting, sketching, and building collages inspired by what they’d just seen.
Thank you to Frist Art Museum for hosting our students and bringing surrealism to life for our young learners!
