The GVSU Art Museum can integrate artwork into your classroom discussions, assignments, projects, and more. Check out our calendar to see if one of our already planned events meets a goal for your students, or reach out to us directly to plan something tailored to your needs. We can bring artwork to your classroom; you can visit our art storage or office spaces, or book a tour of an exhibition or space on campus. 

The GVSU Art Museum team can work with faculty one-on-one to create lesson plans or assignments. Whether you are looking for a behind-the-scenes experience, something hands-on, a creative usage of art in your classroom, or a more traditional assignment, we are here to assist you.

Some ideas about how landscapes can be incorporated into your curriculum include: studying photos and paintings of landscapes to examine how our environment used to look and how human intervention has altered it (the sciences); using landscape imagery for graphic design and advertising courses; using a landscape as the setting for a scene or story (theatre and writing); exploring emotions and empathy through different landscapes (psychology and wellness).
