2026-02-12📍 Chestnut HillThe Art of Looking
with Flo Gelo, Medical humanities educator, psychotherapist, writer; Hildy Tow, the Robert L. McNeil, Jr. Curator of Education, Woodmere Art Museum The Art of Looking is a program that will deepen your ability to engage with art. By focusing on one artwork at a time, the program is designed to increase a viewer’s ability to observe, to engage in self-reflection enabling thoughts and feelings to evolve over time, and to promote conversation and multiple viewpoints with other participants. This program invites you to enjoy and develop relationships with works of art that nurture you more deeply. FREE, space limited* *Please know that space for this program is limited due to the configuration of the galleries featuring Syd Carpenter’s work. If this event fills, please contact amonroe@woodmereartmuseum.org to be placed on a waitlist.

2026-02-14📍 Chestnut HillTeacher Workshop | Finding Our Souls in the Storytelling Art of Jerry Pinkney
“One of the things I’m always interested in is to see how does a person visually read a story. One of the intents I’ve always had in my work, and am very curious to see, is what happens after people leave the gallery and what story they have to tell through my storytelling…I always ask that the viewer invest their own story into my image.” - Jerry Pinkney Stories have long been one of the most powerful ways we come to understand ourselves and the world around us. In this workshop, teachers will explore Jerry Pinkney’s retellings of fables and stories through close-looking activities and discussion strategies designed for classroom use. Participants will examine how Pinkney uses imagery to convey values, character, and life lessons, while practicing approaches that help students interpret images, support their ideas with visual evidence, and reflect on both the artist’s perspective and their own experiences. We will focus on Pinkney’s illustrations and retellings of the Aesop fable, The Grasshopper and the Ants, and The Tales of Uncle Remus, as told by Julius Lester. Uncle Remus tales also raise questions about interpretation and the influence of racial attitudes over time. The retellings of Lester and Pinkney reclaim these narratives by centering their African American origins, restoring their complexity, humor, and resilience, to resonate across generations. $20/teacher; Provides 3 Act 48 Credits
