Our educators facilitate conversation around art, ideas, and contemporary issues. They use contemporary art as a vehicle for developing skills in critical observation, interpretation, and inquiry. We build these learning experiences around four key principles:</p> <ul> <li>Give students agency. Prioritize the wisdom and experiences of young people.</li> <li>Make meaning together. Encourage students to understand art on the own terms and in community with one another.</li> <li>Explore new modes of learning. Create new, unexpected experiences outside of simple lecture and discussion.</li> <li>Prioritize reflection. Offer content, social context, facts, and historical information as opportunities for students to connect the art to their own lives.</li> </ul> </section> <section id="calendar" aria-label="Calendar" data-size="22" data-cwc="1"> <h2>Calendar</h2> <div class="calendly-inline-widget" data-url="https://calendly.com/mcafieldtrips/" style="min-width:320px;height:630px;">  <script data-cfasync="false" src="/cdn-cgi/scripts/5c5dd728/cloudflare-static/email-decode.min.js"></script><script nonce="9765317491a6e805ffaec7000f1d892f">KIT.script('https://assets.calendly.com/assets/external/widget.js')</script> </div> </section> <section id="faqs" aria-describedby="AS3H2" data-size="5140" data-cwc="9"> <h2 id="AS3H2">FAQs</h2> <details id="DET_674680da4791b"> <summary aria-expanded="false" aria-controls="DET_674680da4791b">How do I arrange a field trip for my school?</summary> <p>If you would like to reserve a guided field trip, please use <a href="https://calendly.com/mcafieldtrips/mca-guided-field-trip-summer-2024-clone">the guided field trip calendar</a>.
