Koret Gallery: Art Learning Lab

  • Evening gathering of adults and children on a porch, people eating watermelon. Bright porch lights provide contrast to the evening sky and illuminate plants with red and yellow flowers. A crescent moon is shown in the upper right and a small dog faces a child sitting on the porch steps.

    Carmen Lomas Garza, Sandia Print, 1997. Color lithograph on paper, 22 × 30 inches. Gift from the artist in memory of her grandfather Antonio Lomas and his ancestors, the Coahuiltecas of south Texas and northeast Mexico. 2001.10

    Art Learning Lab is a dedicated exhibition space inspired by Sowing Creativity, the Museum’s award-winning STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math) education program. Featuring a diverse selection of work from the permanent collection, the Art Learning Lab reveals how artists engage cross-disciplinary concepts in their approach to art-making.

    Through interactive play and experimentation, visitors are encouraged to draw their own connections between individual creative exploration and the ideas, tools, and techniques used in the artwork on display.
