What we enjoyed:
- touching the fake snow
- seeing all the shops
- hearing the shop lady talk about her bath-bombs at the stall
- analysing what all the art was about
- watching the video in the art gallery
- using the blocks in the creative area
- getting free food!
What we learned:
- what analyse means – trying to figure something out
- there are actually lots of artists
- some things in art didn’t actually happen – it was just the artist’s imagination
- you don’t have to paint to make art – you can use pictures or photos of real things instead and it can still be art
- we learned about some new artists
- to use our imagination
- there are still slaves in modern times, even in Scotland
- classical art is art that looks like the thing you are painting or drawing, modern art can look totally different
- Any Warhol did colourful art and one of his pieces was a soup can
- how to use the subway
- Shields Road subway is the closest one to our school
- you need to buy a return ticket to go somewhere and back
Why would we recommend going there to our friends or family?
- It’s fun to learn about artists
- It’s interesting
- It makes you think and you use your brain!
