The Newark Museum of Art provides professional development workshops that are instructional and hands-on in project- and object-based learning, as well as open questioning.

The goal of our professional development sessions is to share best practices in progressive educational techniques with educators and help them understand how to use authentic objects as a primary teaching resource.

Participants will receive professional development hours and a certificate of continued education.
