Join us on Saturday, March 14, at 1:00 PM, for Family Saturday: Portrait Revised. We will be looking at works in the Tang collection by artists Hassan Hajjaj and Omar Victor Diop and thinking about how their portraits tell a story. After looking at and discussing their work, we will create our own self portrait where we imagine ourselves in a whole new way.

Family Saturdays foster multigenerational creative cooperation through looking at artwork, discussing it, and engaging in a hands-on art activity. Most of the free programs run from 1:00 to 2:30 PM, unless otherwise specified, and are suitable for children ages 5 and older, accompanied by their adult companions.

All materials provided; be prepared to get messy and have fun. And dress accordingly! Reservations are required and may be made beginning one week in advance of each program. This event is limited to the first 25 participants who RSVP. For additional information and reservations, call the Tang’s Visitor Service Desk at 518-580-8080.

The Tang welcome visitors of all abilities. Be prepared to get messy and have fun! Share your Family Saturday photos on social media by including #tangfamsat.
