Suggested Post-Visit Activities
(Activities can be adapted to classroom requirements and grade levels)
- Chose an artistic technique (block-printing, ink on paper, clay,
tie-dye, etc.) that you like, and create your own unique piece of art.
- Choose a story (fable, myth, etc.) from Indian mythology or from
another culture, and create a piece of art (tapestry, dance piece,
play), based on what you have seen, that illustrates the story.
 Write a review (newspaper, magazine, radio, and television) for
a larger audience about three aspects of the exhibition that you
really enjoyed – or even aspects that you did not enjoy. - As a class, choose one theme (i.e. Spring) and create a number
of different art pieces (sculpture, dance, beadwork, batik etc.)
representing this theme, using the techniques you have observed.
- Using the step-by-step instructions provided by the Museum,
create a "clay" sculpture. Students can use something
like Play-Doh® or Plasticine®to
imitate the artisan's clay figurine.
- Using techniques learned at the Museum, create your own rangoli design.
