The Art of Empathy: NYU x Whitney Museum Collaboration

Empathy is a teachable skill that fosters deeper connections and a sense of belonging. A physician and a museum educator will guide you through their visionary curriculum and teach you how to use it within your disciplines. Through engaging with art, participants will learn the skills of observation, interpretation, perspective believing, and engaged curiosity. This facilitated process will encourage learning from one another and equip participants to bring empathy training to their institutions. Come experience this fun, innovative program and join us in advancing a more empathetic world.
