Themes
Gadgets and Gizmos–Explore the gadgets and gizmos artists use in making art as we apply these tools to our own art making.
The Great Outdoors–Allow nature to take hold as we explore the elements and terrains of the great outdoors. Reach the far depths of space or explore garden spaces. Nature takes hold as we go on hikes around the Museum.
Paws and Claws–Explore art making activities with animals as our theme. From household pets to wilderness creatures, we will craft, sculpt and make animals big and small.
