20th Century Tour and Activity 
St. Bonaventure University education interns Abbie
Milliman and Shauna Klotz designed a lesson where
children would create an interactive, cooperative piece
of artwork in the style of Robbin Murphy. This lesson
was originally developed for the PreK tours and later
adapted for other grades, including Allegany-
Limestone Elementary School’s second grade class of
over one hundred students. During their field trip to
The Regina A. Quick Center for the Arts, children
toured the 20th Century exhibition Out of the Soup
Can: Mid-Century and Beyond and learned about 20th
century artists, including Andy Warhol, Keith Haring,
and Robbin Murphy (see above). Children later created
their own artwork, using a picture of the school as the
foundation for the work.
