We guarantee that you and your family will never get bored at Glenbow. If anything, you might be wondering where to start! Here are a few suggestions to get you on your way to a day of unforgettable adventures and creativity.
Get Physical
Take a moment to lie down on the gallery floor to see things from a whole new perspective.
Ask Questions
Get the whole family talking by asking questions like:
- What is it made of? Why do you think the person who made it chose that material?
- How was it made? What do you think the process of making it was like?
- Use your imagination to explore something with all five senses. When you look at this object/artwork, what do you see? What do you hear? What do you smell and taste? What do you feel?
- Play “I spy” with an artwork or in a gallery. What did you spy and why did that thing catch your eye?
- How does this object or artwork make you feel?
- Artworks and objects often have a story to tell. Do any of your belongings or things that you’ve made tell stories about you and your life?
