Since 2011, artworks from the McNay’s collection by Diego Rivera, Sue Fuller, and Willie Cole have inspired San Antonio K-12 students. Looking closely together and learning about the artist, our community’s youth make connections with their own experiences and create art with powerful and personal messages.
Last spring, students responded to Willie Cole’s sculpture, The Sole Sitter, on view in the newly improved Museum grounds. During the 2023–2024 school year, students from across the San Antonio area will showcase their creative responses to vanessa german’s assemblage, BLACK GIRL WITH SNAKES.
