We’re so excited to all those who joined us for the Smithsonian K-12 Teacher Workshop: Creating Portraits of Community this past weekend at IMAS! 🎨📸   Thanks to the support of The Smithsonian Campaign for Our Shared Future, IMAS, a Smithsonian Affiliate, guided teachers through an incredible day of utilizing photography and oral history to capture our communities and bring those stories into your classroom, building from the Smithsonian American Art Museum curriculum. Teachers left this workshop with three ready-to-use lessons for their classrooms.   #IMAS #Smithsonian #TeacherWorkshop #CreatingPortraitsOfCommunity #K12Education
