MassArt Art Museum offers unique program for schools teaching Portuguese
BOSTON – When the MassArt Art Museum (MAAM) closed a year ago due to the pandemic, the staff put on their thinking caps to find practical solutions and ended up redesigning its 25-year-old “Looking to Learn” program that traditionally served Boston-area schools into a virtual model, which is not only more far-reaching but also being offered for the first time in Portuguese.
MAAM Curatorial Fellow Michaela Blanc, a native of Brazil who is pursuing a graduate degree in Museum Education at Tufts University, has adapted the program to serve schools that teach Portuguese language and culture.
