Actual questions from past AP tests are displayed next to works of art from the Museum's permanent collection. You as docents may find this to be a stimulating exhibit that will spark conversations about the art. I am not planning on giving any training on this exhibit as it will be up for only 3 weeks and will not be highlighted in the Images and Words tours. If you would like some information Pean talk with any of you informally about it. I would recommend you discuss the exhibit as a team, the different opinions about the questions might be intriguing!
