JOURNEY Arts in Ed Program The Huntington Arts Council’s JOURNEY program has been an educational resource partner with various Long Island school districts since 1985. The multi-component program promotes cultural understanding and appreciation through the arts. For the first time since its inception, JOURNEY was temporarily moved to a virtual platform as a necessary adaptation for our partner schools that had been closed due to the Governor’s orders.
The annual High Arts Showcase exhibition was in the midst of being hung in our gallery when our staff was mandated to work from home. This program provides students with the unique opportunity to present art in a gallery setting. How would we ensure these works that students had put their hearts and souls into would be exhibited? HAC quickly developed a virtual exhibition on our website along with social media posts for each student giving them the recognition they deserved.
The JOURNEY program Discovery Lending Chest component was a greater challenge because the value is in the hands on, tactile experience it provides through artifact exploration for several different cultures; Ancient Egypt, Africa, China, Greece, India, Latin America, and Native America. We made photographs with descriptions of the artifacts available on our website. We also provided internet resources for additional research and activities. Our partner school teachers were also able to request a PowerPoint format to meet their specific needs.
Teacher Paul Esposito of Woodhull Intermediate School in Huntington, took this new resource and used it to make a Teacher Paul Esposito of Woodhull Intermediate School, Huntington fun online learning activity for his classes. While working cards. They had questions to answer, the answers gave them assemblies in schools, as well as some virtual offerings. remotely from home Mr. Esposito used the digital version of letters which they had to unscramble.
