After School Art Explorers: Drop-In Programs

Preschoolers and elementary school-aged children are invited to explore and create during these drop-in Tuesday afternoon sessions. Inspired by artworks on view, families will encounter different art-making activities, such as printmaking, mixed-media collages, or sculptural projects.

This program is led by a Museum Educator and assisted by Teen Interns.

January 13, Abstract Collagraph Prints: Create abstract designs using the collagraph printmaking techniques inspired by the shapes and lines in the painting Untitled by Lee Krasner.

January 27, Magical Landscapes: Celebrate nature and the Jewish holiday of Tu B’Shevat by making nature inspired wax-resist watercolor paintings.

February 10, Expressive Portrait Paintings: Use tempera paint and bright strokes of color to paint a portrait inspired by the vibrant artwork of Gertrud Kauder.

February 24, Sculptural Purim Masks: Make a bold and festive mask to celebrate Purim with fabric, found objects, buttons, and trims!
