EDUCATION 11 Spanish Sojourns: Robert Henri and the Spirit of Spain Spanish Sojourns took more than five years to develop and was inspired by one of the most beloved paintings in Telfair’s collection, La Madrileñita. The exhibition was accompanied by a fully illustrated hardcover catalogue that presented new scholarship on Henri and placed his work in the context of other American artists, architects and writers who were inspired by Spain in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Related educational programs included a four-part evening lecture series by the key scholars and curators involved in the exhibition and accompanying catalogue.

Free Family Day In spring of 2013, Free Family Day became a monthly event due to generous funding from the City of Savannah Department of Cultural Affairs, the Georgia Power Foundation, Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation and the AGL Resources Foundation. Family Days are fun, educational and free! Visitors have the opportunity to enjoy hands-on art projects, gallery exploration activities, story time, and they are designed to engage the whole family.

PULSE Art + Technology Festival PULSE is a wildly inventive, interactive technology-based art festival. This free event allowed the public to participate in amazing interactive art experiences and hands-on workshops. Avant-garde visual artists from around the country presented electrifying performances and gave lectures that taught and illustrated new art forms. PULSE partnered with Armstrong Atlantic State University, the Savannah College of Art and Design, Indigo Sky Gallery, the Creative Coast and the Savannah Chatham County Public Schools’ STEM Academy to create offsite workshops and programs.
