The Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art (SMoCA) is offering the Alt+Shift Program FREE to schools. This is a virtual school program best for grades 5–12.
Flexible scheduling is available on select Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays. Learn more here.
Use your imagination and creative spark to shift your perspective while exploring contemporary art. Rewind to the past or fast–forward to the future. Peer through a magnifying glass or gaze through a telescope. Examine an object, landscape, or system. Look through another person’s eyes. By imagining difference and considering alternative perspectives, students will put into play skills of critical thinking, adaptability, and empathy-building as they dynamically connect with and respond to contemporary art. Take an imaginative leap and join our learning and engagement specialists on this interactive 40-minute virtual field trip to SMoCA.
Please contact Charlotte Quinney, campus engagement coordinator, at [email protected] or call 480-874-4643 for further information or to make a booking.
