Artist and Sense of Place Residency Show Woodmere Elementary School



On View October 12 - November 17, 2019

Since 2001, the Ogden Museum of Southern Art’s residency program, Artists and Sense of Place, has paired professional artists with local schools to explore history, practices and identity of the student’s world. Working with elementary school children in the medium of the artist’s choice, the artist spends three weeks with students exploring the influence of geography and sense of place. Upon completion of the residency, the students visit the Museum to view their finished works of art. This exhibition features artwork created by students from Woodmere Elementary School in collaboration with artist, Gina Phillips. The exhibition is on view in the Education Gallery on the Museum’s third floor.
