Summer Open Studios

Summer Open Studios

S.O.S. is a unique Museum program to introduce groups of children ages 6 to 16 to the concepts and processes of making art and learning with their hands. Artist Educators from the Museum's Education Department will conduct workshops during the week, demonstrating various studio techniques and helping children transform abstract ideas into art objects.

Children directly experience creative studio processes and materials while creating and presenting their own work--explaining personal process and decision-making and demonstrating their newly-acquired skills. Museum staff will lead children through the galleries to view and discuss current exhibitions and reinforce concepts taught in the session.

Programs run twice daily, Monday through Friday, 10:30 to 12:30 and 2:30 to 4:30 beginning in July.

Fee: $125.00 non-refundable.

Maximum 35 children. 1 chaperone required per 10 children.
