What: 

🎨Discover Art at the Raclin Murphy Museum of Art!

Join us for an inspiring visit to the Raclin Murphy Museum of Art at the University of Notre Dame! Students and families will explore beautiful gallery spaces and discover how artists use creativity to tell stories, express ideas, and explore the world around them.

During our visit, museum educators will guide students through a selection of artworks from different cultures and time periods. Students will learn to examine art closely, consider the stories and meanings behind it, and discover the many ways art connects to history, culture, and everyday life.

This experience is designed for a wide range of ages, making it a great opportunity for students to engage with art, ask questions, and see how creativity can inspire new ways of thinking.

We hope you’ll join us for a fun morning of exploration, creativity, and art! 🖼️✨

Note on Groups: During our visit, we will divide into three docent-led groups designed for younger students, intermediate learners, and upper-level students. Families will stay together and choose the group that feels like the best fit for their family once you arrive.

Who: All Braintree Academy CDLA students, as well as parents and siblings under 5. 

Cost: Free for all Braintree Academy CDLA students and their families.

Questions: Kristi at Michiana.Events@braintreeed.com
