Student Docent Tours of the Aldrich
Posted by Krissy PondenHalf of the students in eighth grade led the sixth, seventh, and remaining eighth graders on tours of The Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum after completing their four weeks of docent training in October. The Student Docents asked questions of their peers while viewing the museum’s current exhibitions including Chelpa Ferro, Kate Eric, Jessica Stockholder, Type A, and Judi Werthein. Additionally, the students worked on a group hands-on activity in the education center. As the current theme of the museum is related to collaboration, the students were asked to work on a group piece by each contributing to each other’s drawings. The tours were once again a great success, and it is always a pleasure to be involved in one of the Student Docent’s conversations about the art. We are looking forward to the Spring, when the other eighth graders will train to be docents and give tours of the museum to the fourth and fifth graders.
