In Episode 10 of Why Arts?, I’m in conversation with Sarah Lieberman — museum educator, thoughtful listener, and someone who deeply believes that art belongs to everyone.As a child, Sarah made outfits for her dolls out of napkins and scraps — experimenting, imagining, redesigning. That early instinct to transform everyday materials into something meaningful never really left her.Today, Sarah is the Assistant Educator for School and Teacher Programs at the RISD Museum, where she designs object-based learning experiences for K–12 students in Providence. Before this, she was a Cunningham Fellow at the Harvard Art Museums, teaching interdisciplinary university courses, mentoring graduate students, and building family and teen programs.In our conversation, we talk about:• What object-based learning really looks like in practice• How museums can become spaces of dialogue rather than quiet compliance• Why there isn’t one “right” interpretation of an artwork• How confidence grows when students realize their voice mattersMuseums should feel welcoming. Families should feel invited. Students should feel trusted.🎧 Listen on YouTube and Spotify — Why Arts? by Emergent Inquiry Studio📲 Follow along on Instagram: @nanvi_at.el.ier#WhyArts #MuseumEducation #RISDMuseum #ArtForAll #ObjectBasedLearning #CreativeLearning
