Join K-12 educators from around the country in a virtual workshop centered around the previous exhibition Hear Me Now: The Black Potters of Old Edgefield, South Carolina. The exhibition provides rich themes to explore in Social Studies, Literature, and Visual Arts classrooms–some examples include highlighting the voices of enslaved artists and emphasizing the tremendous skill involved in creating these vessels. In this two-pronged workshop, ceramic artist Ademunmi Gbadebo will begin by discussing how she incorporates clay from this region in her work and will share how materials impact her artistic process. Then middle and high school teachers will share how they have integrated exhibition content into their curriculum. This workshop will be recorded and is free and open to the public.
