Marilyn JS Goodman: Children Draw

April 17, 2019

Young children seem instinctively to enjoy scribbling and drawing, but this love of art-making seems to vanish in their teens. Why? That is just one of the questions we will ask on this episode of Inquiry when we talk with MARILYN JS GOODMAN. She is an art and museum education specialist who has served as Director of Education for the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum; Director of the Children’s Museum of Cincinnati; and the Director of k-12 Art for the Worcester Public Schools. Her new book is a colorful overlook at children and their art-making: CHILDREN DRAW: A GUIDE TO WHY, WHEN AND HOW CHILDREN MAKE ART.
