Gallery Kit: Lunar New Year

In celebration of Lunar New Year, visitors of all ages are invited to explore Isamu Noguchi’s Lunar light sculptures on view in the exhibition Against Time: The Noguchi Museum 40th Anniversary Reinstallation through art-making in the galleries. In the 1940s, Noguchi experimented with making illuminated sculptures. He later wrote, “I thought of a luminous object as a source of delight in itself—like a fire it attracts and protects us from the beasts of the night.” Pick up art materials from a Noguchi Museum educator and make your own creations in the galleries inspired by these otherworldly works.
