Event Description

Much of art is about storytelling. Explore how artists draw inspiration from the stories of others and tell new stories through their artworks. Participants will reflect on their special memories and stories, and infuse those into their own artistic creations. This program is designed for students ages 5 to 17.

American Sign Language (ASL) interpretation may be provided during this event upon advance request.

We’re trying new things this year. Participants are asked to stay in family units with their adult caregivers for this program.

Learn about our current health and safety protocols.
