Event Details
This virtual fieldtrip introduces the art of selected cultures in ancient Mesoamerica (today, Mexico, Guatemala and adjacent countries). Objects of ceramic, gold and stone (including jade) shed light on religion and rulership among the Aztec, Maya, and others in the centuries before European contact. Participants will help the instructor analyze art works and their meanings.
This program is geared for grades 5 and up but all are welcome. All our live interactive video conference presentations are sponsored by Atmos Energy.
