Create a gallery space - Google Arts and Culture

An art museum or art gallery is a place where people display things that they have created. It is a space where important objects are put on display. It is also a place where people can go to look at artwork! I like to think of our school's hallways as an art gallery where your artwork is hung up for everyone to see!

Check out all the art resources Google Arts and Culture has to offer! With a parent or guardian present, take a virtual tour! You can choose from over 2,000 art museums and galleries around the world! You can also view famous artwork and learn more about the artists in Google's Art Up Close Zoom series.

After you have taken a tour of an art museum or gallery space, we are going to create our own gallery! Think about what objects are most important to you? What objects do you always bring with you when you go somewhere? What objects would you want everyone to see? Create a list of 5 of your most important objects. Then draw an imaginary gallery space to display your favorite things inside. You can draw your own gallery space or use the one provided below.

Here are some things to think about when drawing your imaginary gallery:
How would you organize your items?Would you place them from largest to smallest? How would you have them displayed? Would your objects be sitting on a table, pedestal, or on the floor. Would they be hung on the walls? Maybe you would put some in glass cases or you could you invite people to hold your objects? What would your gallery be named?
