Agnes school programs on hold for Fall 2024!

As we settle into our new, temporary home at Rideau Building, our school programs are taking a brief hiatus. We’ll be back with these programs in Winter 2025! Check out our asynchronous learning opportunities below.

Reflecting on Lii Zoot Tayr (Other Worlds) (Grades 9–12)

Go to Reflecting on Lii Zoot Tayr

We invite students in grades 9–12 to reflect on the exhibition Lii Zoot Tayr (Other Worlds) an exhibition that features the work of five contemporary Métis artists. Students consider the themes present in the exhibition including in/visibility, unseen forces and the natural environment. This asynchronous school program is designed to enrich Indigenous arts education with connections to the curriculum.

Nocturne (grades 1–6)

Go to the School Program, Nocturne

We invite grade 1–6 students to explore the exhibition Nocturne. This asynchronous program embraces the sensory exploration of the night while considering the landscape genre in Historical Canadian Art. Artists’ enduring fascination with the hours between sunset and sunrise provides the foundation for curriculum links in poetry, painting and perspective.

The school programs are supported by the Iva Speers Fund for Art Education and the Canada Council for the Arts.
