Museum Makers is a weekly studio-based program that provides art-making, discussion, and sensory experiences for young and school-aged children. Young artists will have exposure to a wide variety of art-making tools and materials but will also practice and stimulate problem-solving and integrate learning from other areas of education, such as math and reading, in a culturally significant institution.
Mini-Makers, Ages 1–5
When | Thursdays, 10:30–11:30 a.m. or 12:30–1:30 p.m. |
Where | Art Studio |
Spring Semester: Apr. 4–May 9, 2024
Visit the museum with your young children to explore engaging sensory, imaginary play, art making, art viewing and movement activities. We’ll keep your little artist engaged by moving between stations that will invite each child and guardian to create in a way that is interesting and developmentally appropriate. A guardian is required to attend for the child or children they register.
