For Educators and School Groups

Beginning mid February students will learn basic screen printing skills. Participants of last year’s art project will broaden their skill through more advanced techniques and a focus on composition and content. Class will meet four times times for approximately 2-3 hours per class.

This fall, Chinati continued its Seeing Poetry program, which is a collaborative effort between the museum and Marfa ISD. Ninth graders, along with teachers, Chinati staff, and a professional poet, used Carl Andre's permanent Chinati installation “Words” as an entry point for writing their own poetry and silkscreening those works onto paper and t-shirts.

Please join us, Wednesday, November 4, 2015 for Seeing Poetry, an exhibition of original poetry written and screen printed by the Marfa High School freshman class. The installation will open to the public at 5:00 pm in the Arena, with a reading by the young artists at 6:00 pm. The reading will be followed by a reception from 6:30-7:30 pm in the courtyard.
