VTS
Visual Thinking Strategies (VTS) is a facilitation method that fosters collaborative, inclusive, community-building dialogue. VTS has the power to change the way we relate to others. Currently, VTS is used in a collaborative project of the Institute for Civic Discourse and Democracy, K-State Research and Extension 4-H, and the Beach Museum of Art at Kansas State University.
VTS is a facilitated discussion where participants are asked a series of questions that guide them through viewing art. In this way, multiple interpretations are shared and analyzed by the group. Participants will be trained to facilitate these discussions. We are working to integrate this activity with Community Conversations as a way to get participants sharing and listening to differing perspectives.
