The Met Enhances Digital Programming: Art = The Power to Connect, Heal, & Build Communities

NEW YORK — While The Metropolitan Museum of Art has temporarily closed all three of its locations to support the effort to contain the spread of COVID-19, the mission of its commitment to inspire knowledge, creativity, and ideas is growing more enhanced online, even while visitors are hunkering down at home.

In a new digital digest, a selection of The Met’s many videos, articles, and online resources are being shared. There are art-making activities for the whole family, concerts by musicians from around the world, and everything from cutting-edge 360-degree videos to downloadable catalogues from past exhibitions. 

There’s a lot to discover, and The Met says over the next few weeks, it will continue to share the art that enriches our lives and that can serve as a resource for educator to connect with art wherever you are.
