The Art Curator for Kids - Art Around the World for Kids in 30 Days - Experience Art with Your Kids, Art History for Kids, Art Appreciation for Kids, non-western art lessons for kids

This month, I will be showing you art from around the world. Each day, I will pick one country and one artwork to focus on. Are you ready for this? This is super crazy! In the month of November, I am going to do one post per day. I’ve always wanted to try this to see if it is something I can do.

I will write a little bit of information about the art, give you at least 3 art discussion questions to use with your kiddos to help you talk about it, and provide you with at least one idea for an art learning activity or art project you could do to help teach about the artwork in question. I’m sure there will be other goodies thrown in as well. They won’t be as long as an Art Spotlight or a Masterpiece Monday since this is daily, but I will introduce you and your family to a LOT of amazing art from around the world and offer you some new ideas. The artworks vary from super old to some made in this decade.

Oh! One more thing. At the end of the month, I will be putting all 30 artworks and accompanying text into a PDF Art Around the World for Kids eBook to put in the Curated Connections Library!

When I post a new artwork, I will link to it down below, so future readers can come back to this post as an index to this month of art. I’ve already chosen the artworks for the whole month, so I’ll go ahead and list the countries to get you all excited with anticipation for Art Around the World in 30 Days. I will also be posting other resources from the countries covered (and some that are not!) on my Facebook page, so be sure to stop by the page this month to get some other great links and resources about art around the world.

      Thanks! I am having SO MUCH FUN writing them! I’m about a week in, and I chose a lot of things I don’t know a lot about, so I’m learning a ton.

    I saw your post on Mommy Blogger’s Share and I love this idea. I have been fascinated by art (and museums) since I was a little girl and my grandmother was a docent at the art museum. I love that you have gathered these amazing works of art in one place and I look forward to sharing them with my kids. Pinning. Thank you!

      Thank you! That is awesome that you had such a great connection with museums as a kid. I’m glad I can help you pass that along to your little ones. 🙂

      Oops my original comment I’m deleting because I thought this was a comment in a different post. 🙂 I was choosing art that people may not have heard of not going for popular countries. I do have Greek art represented on the blog in other posts just not in this series. 🙂

I like how this program, unlike other art class resource membership programs, feels authentic. It's like art matters more here, and not fancy flash-in-the-pan trendiness. The goal of Art Class Curator seemed to be helping kids develop a lifelong love and art appreciation versus "Hey, look. I painted this fish."
Erin A.
Your questions are helping me to delve into much deeper learning, and my students are getting better at discussion-and then, making connections in their own work. Art Class Curator is awesome!
Denise W.
Interestingly, my lower performing classes really get engaged in these [lessons] and come away with some profound thoughts!
Melissa G.
I had the most amazing 6th grade class today. They were jumping out of their seats with hands raised just to respond and give input. It was as if I was waving candy in front of them! They saw more and more and the ideas and interpretations unfolded. So cool!!! This is what makes teaching art so wonderful – thank you!!
Caroline G.
I just wanted to thank you for the invaluable resource you have through Art Class Curator. Not only do you have thought provoking activities and discussion prompts, but it saves me so much time in preparing things for myself! I feel like I’ve only scratched the surface with your site.
