Take a wonder walk through the galleries! Join us on the first Friday of the month. Children and their caregivers will be led through the galleries by a member of the museum education team. The walk will include close looking at a few artworks as well as gallery games and activities. This is a great way to introduce your little one to art and the museum. Wonder Walks is for children 2-4 years old (but all are welcome) and is free with the cost of admission. Caregivers must stay with their children at all times.
The Garden of Courage and Love is an ongoing artist project by JooYoung Choi where participants create flowers representing people who have shown them unconditional love. These flowers will be added to a growing garden that has been exhibited in multiple installations. Participants will create two larger flowers—one to take home and one to donate to the garden—and three small practice flowers during the workshop.
By the end of the workshop, participants will have created three practice flowers (they can keep or donate the practice flowers) and two larger flowers—one to keep and one to donate. These meaningful creations will join the Garden of Courage and Love, reflecting each participant’s creativity and honoring the people they cherish.
Participants must be 9 years old or older. Caregivers must be 18 years old or older and stay with their children at all times. Adults will need to assist their children during the workshop with staple guns, glue guns, sharp scissors, and other tools.
The workshop is limited to 20 people.
The Meader Fine Arts Library is a free resource open to the public during operation hours. The library is open Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday from 11am-3pm. Books are available on loan for members.
All book discussions are free and open to the public. Participants do not need to have read the book but it will help facilitate overall discussion.
Art Detectives is for children 4-8 years old (but all ages are welcome). Come join us as we read a story, look at art, and make a project to take home! Caregivers must stay with their children at all times.
