As a way of experiencing the Humanities computer, and textbook, you are asked to do a certain type of cultural activity that fits well with our course and then report on your experience. Your instructor will require you to propose an activity and get instructor approval before you do it and report on it (students should look for any instructions in that respect).
1. Visit a museum or gallery exhibition (The National Gallery of Art) in Washington DC before the end of Week 10. The activity (museum or performance) should have content that fits our course well. Have fun doing this.
2. Write a two to three (2-3) page report (500-750 words) that describes your experience.
o Clearly identify the event location, date attended, the attendees, and your initial reaction upon arriving at the event.
o Provide specific information and a description of at least two (2) pieces.
o Provide a summary of the event and describe your overall reaction after attending the event.
o Use at least the class text as a reference (additional sources are fine, not necessary unless required by your content). Your report should include connections you make between things observed in your activity and things learned in the course and text.
Every effort should be made to ensure that this is a hands-on experience (not a virtual one).
The two key types of activities are a museum visit or a performance.
