Duration: 2 - 3 Classes

Connected By Art

Similar to Haring, tolerance and understanding are the main themes for two schools from the Middle East that created a mural together.

Monkey Mosaic

Two schools in Germany collaborate on a full-scale mosaic, using imagery inspired by our favorite artist, Keith Haring!

Make your classroom a bright and inspiring place for you and your students to work in. This project shows you how to paint a wall mural, wake up old curtains, and filter light through wonderful stained glass, a la Haring, of course. Great for school and for home.

Haring Art Work

These students from the UK learned all about Keith Haring before they began their own interpretive pastel posters. Afterwards, they wrote their opinions, reflecting on the imagery and their knowledge of Keith Haring. They posted it on their school web site for everyone to enjoy.

Book of Little Things

Although initially used as an adjunct to a larger scale lesson, this activity provides much potential when used with Keith Haring's book, NINA'S BOOK OF LITTLE THINGS, which allows for interactive visual and conceptual activities.

Questions

A writing lesson that asks children to determine questions to elicit interesting and revealing biographies of other children.

Heart Collage

A simple lesson designed for younger students. Perfect for Valentines or Mothers Day.

Haring All Over

A lesson that focuses on pattern and design through line and color. The teacher, a fellow Haring fan, used many of the images on our site to inspire her students. The finished products were photographed and made into a book.

Add a Page to Love

Using Keith Haring's book, LOVE, as a stepping stone, students are asked to create their own page to express love while challenging their use of color.
