Art Teaches features the JSMA’s Ten Symbols of Longevity screen

The JSMA’s Education Department is finalizing the creation of their next Art Teaches video focused on one of our most beloved pieces of Korean art, the Ten Symbols of Longevity screen. Minchae Cho, Korean Foundation

Global Intern for 2022-23, worked with Sherri Jones, Assistant Administrator of Education, to create this new lesson. It will feature the same curriculum planning as the first successful Art Teaches lessons, each featuring art from the exhibition Myriad Treasures: Celebrating the Reinstallation of Soreng Gallery of Chinese Art. The primary audience is students in grades 4-8, but it will have additional materials to inform older students and adult viewers as well.
