Connect with Culture
Walk in another's shoes Through the study of common and unique themes, ritual, visual, sounds, and clothing, we connect with a variety of cultures and learn to "walk in another's shoes." By promoting awareness of common connections and respect for all cultures, the Mizel Museum bridges the gap between peoples.
Participants enjoy hands-on activities, video, music, and art projects that meet specific cultural educational needs. See the Colorado Model Content Standards. » » | 
The Bridges of Understanding Curriculum Guides and exhibitions target six Colorado Model Content Standards areas: Visual Arts, Reading and Writing, History, Geography, Dance and Music. Visit the Bridges of Understanding exhibit to augment educational studies of various cultures. Use this guide prior to your visit or to enhance lessons that will advance your student’s knowledge. | | Intercultural Exhibits and Artifacts | The Mizel Museum invites you to participate in our permanent cross-cultural exhibits. The Ceremonies & Festivals and Rites of Passage exhibitions highlight common themes, ceremonies and traditions that connect diverse people - giving insights into the richness of their heritage. Through discovery, you can learn to recognize the similarities that exist among all cultures. | | Bridges of Understanding explores the Asian Pacific, Native American, African American, Jewish, Latino/Hispanic and Muslim cultures. Customs and rituals come to life through artifacts, art objects, photography and interactive activities. Most two-hour programs are enhanced by guest artists from the represented cultures who bring their stories, music, dance and art to our visitors. | | | Ceremonies & Festivals » » | | Rites of Passage » » | |
