Messaging: The Block From Home

While operating remotely in Spring 2020, The Block Museum of Art embraced digital engagement and outreach as a core activity of its work in support of Northwestern’s students and faculty, as well as the general Evanston community. A specially launched website TheBlockFromHome offered content selections for audiences to browse during the initial months of quarantine.

Throughout Spring 2020 The Block sought to: • extend its commitment as a resource for interdisciplinary teaching, learning and research at Northwestern and beyond; • showcase, cultivate, and catalyze thought-provoking discussions about art and its relevance to contemporary life; • provide free, rich, and accessible arts and culture experiences for existing and new audiences.
