Experience our iconic architecture and history program live on Zoom!
Students will practice visual literacy by learning to “read” architecture as a primary source. Participants will develop a character portrait of J. Pierpont Morgan by looking at his magnificent Gilded Age library.
School programs at the Morgan Library & Museum offer students an opportunity to look closely, ask questions, make meaning, and find personal relevance in a wide range of objects. The Morgan’s collections and exhibitions highlight the creative process throughout history and include ancient Mesopotamian cylinder seals and tablets, medieval and Renaissance illuminated manuscripts, rare printed books and bindings, and a large collection of Renaissance to contemporary drawings. The range of the Morgan’s world-renowned literary and art collections support and supplement K-12 classroom curricula.
