Art Club Visits Museums
Ms. Jansen and 21 Art Club students took a trip to The Russian Museum of Art and the Minneapolis Institute of Art. At the Russian Museum of Art, Students learned, via docent, all about the history of Russia and the history of The Matryoshka doll, nesting dolls. At the MIA students were split into two groups and had 2 docents give them a tour. The tour was all about things that make us wonder. After the tour students had about an hour to tour the rest of the MIA and see everything else it had to offer. This was the first time many of these students have been able to go to a museum. We are so thankful for the opportunity.
