Thinking caps on! Everyone can be a philosopher in this fun and challenging NGV educator-led program designed to inspire creative and critical thinking. Students will explore a range of thought-provoking works in the NGV Collection, and use questioning techniques and Artful Thinking routines to philosophically explore ideas about how we define and value art.

Students will:

  • Question and investigate art and design from different cultural, historical and contemporary contexts using Artful Thinking strategies and tools.
  • Consider and respond to philosophical questions and big ideas about art.
  • Listen and respond to comments and views of others thoughtfully and constructively
