Students, grades K-8th grade, led by Sun Gallery art educators, have the opportunity to view our special art exhibits and take part in active discussions as they explore, learning art principles and vocabulary, while encouraged to ask questions and share their impressions. The field trip culminates in our art studio classroom, where each student creates a hands-on art project. Under the direction of the art educator, young artists can create a piece that relates to work seen in the gallery tour.
