Virtual Roanoke STEAM Day

Celebrate Science, Technology , Engineering, Arts and Math virtually with Roanoke STEAM Day on Friday, October 23!

Area museums and organizations - including the Taubman - are partnering together to offer a fun and engaging way to get students excited about learning.

Did you know that the Taubman is home to one of the largest full-length portraits ever painted by the renowned artist John Singer Sargent? It's titled Portrait of Norah Gribble, and is on view in the exhibition Outside Eyes: New Perspectives on the Collection.

Check out the videos and images below to learn more about this painting - including the mystery hidden beneath the top coat of paint! - then download the activity sheets to create your own masterpieces. And don't forget to visit the Museum soon to see Norah for yourself in person!
