Telling Stories

Complementing 4000 works of art with 400 lesson plans generated by a team of educators, Telling Stories uses the Confederation Centre Art Gallery collection and works of art from gallery collections across Canada to explore the symbols and icons that are used in the artworks to tell stories about the geographical, historical, and cultural make-up of Canada. Telling Stories was co-produced in 1998 by the Gallery and the Prince Edward Island Department of Education, with support from the Department of Canadian Heritage. A print version of the program is currently used at the Grade 8 level throughout the province.
