Event Description

In inviting reactions from its viewers, a work of art seeks to provide new insights into our own lived experiences. The process of understanding art is all about empowering ourselves with the right tools to make the process enjoyable and immersive.

Join us for a masterclass conducted by art historian and museum educator Ben Street where he explores the ways in which you can find value and enjoyment in art interpretation while debunking the pervasive idea that specialist knowledge is required to understand and appreciate art.
