Look Club takes place on the first Wednesday of each month at 12 noon and is an opportunity to experience art in a way you haven't before.
During Look Club sessions we'll be encountering artworks together by starting from scratch, with no historical context or knowledge. There are no right or wrong answers, only opinions and perspectives.
These unique sessions encourage us to think deeply and share a space for listening. Come along to the Hunterian Art Gallery and meet new people, increase your own sense of confidence and take time to be culturally curious!
Tea, coffee and biscuits are served.
A specific approach to looking at art, known as Visual Thinking Strategies (VTS), was co developed by Abigail Housen, Harvard Cognitive Psychologist, and Philip Yenawine, Director of Education at MOMA between the years of 1988-199. This method is initiated by facilitated discussions of art images and jumpstarts a process of learning to think deeply. It enhances and encourages thinking skills, provides oral and written language literacy, visual literacy, and collaborative interactions among peers.
