MEET THE MASTERS

Meet the Masters is a volunteer art history & art appreciation program that introduces children to the world of fine art—guiding students on an adventure in “seeing” through fun presentations and projects. We’re so grateful to all our teachers and volunteers for supporting the arts by facilitating Meet The Masters sessions.

The following projects have been created by Meet The Masters volunteers.

Contact MTM Committee if you would like to have a project featured.

While some projects work well for different grades, it’s important to avoid repeating the same projects throughout a student’s elementary years. Keeping a list of completed projects can help ensure variety and a richer learning experience.
