The Collaboratory

Learning at Elsewhere is a process of discovery activated through play and art. The museum is an interface to consider the history of things that help spark questions and explore the world around us. We work with groups of people to facilitate retreats, customized curricula and use K-12 schools to continue Elsewhere’s process of crafting a collaborative fiction together. We invite students, teaches and lifelong learners to come play with us in a number of ways!

CREATIVE RETREATS

$50/student for daylong programs, $75/person/night for multiday programs
(includes food, board, and curriculum)

Creative retreats at Elsewhere are immersive, overnight or daylong adventures into the living museum. Together, professors and students are challenged to integrate their learning communities with creative living practices. Enacting changes and transformations within Elsewhere’s environment formulates new modes for creative response and collaboration. Typically serves upper-level undergraduate & graduate students across disciplines.

ARTISTS IN YOUR CLASSROOM

$250 for 90 minutes

Elsewhere’s artists will travel to your classroom to host a creative session that introduces students to Elsewhere’s creative concepts and various artistic techniques. Each session facilitates a collaborative and hands-on learning session that focus on living histories, storytelling, creative inquiry and investigation. Our K-12 curriculum aligns with science, math and language arts learning standards.

PLAYSHOPS

Saturdays at 2PM
$5/person

Playshops explore new ways to learn, create and imagine at Elsewhere. Each session explores the history of things, collaboration and play through an activity co-led by artists, special guests and you. From the art of cooking to the infinite possibilities of fabric, the Internet or music, Playshops provide a time and place to experiment with the ways we learn. Perfect for families, youth and people of all ages. To propose a Playshop email the Education Curator at education@elsewhereelsewhere.org
