Wild & Wonderful: Stories from Nature

Saturday, January 3, 10, 17, 24, 31
11 AM – 12:20 PM OR 1 – 2:20 PM

This month, we explore how animals, plants, and imaginary worlds help artists tell stories. Families will look at artworks across collections that use nature and creatures to spark ideas, emotion, and creativity. Then, inspired by what you see, create your own artwork full of imaginative creatures, patterns, and natural forms that tell a story all your own. Children ages 5 – 12, and their accompanying grown-ups, participate in a 15-minute spotlight tour, followed by a related art workshop.

This is a FREE program.

Artful Expressions of Who We Are

Saturday, February 7, 14, 28 (Registration available January 15)
11 AM – 12:20 PM OR 1 – 2:20 PM

February invites us to honor the stories, traditions, and histories that shape our lives and communities. Families will explore artworks from across cultures and time periods that reflect identity, heritage, and memory. Then, create your own artwork inspired by your family, your experiences, and the stories you want to share with the world. Children ages 5 – 12, and their accompanying grown-ups, participate in a 15-minute spotlight tour, followed by a related art workshop. Each weekend is a new experience!

This is a FREE program.
