Join us Saturday, June 21, at 2 pm, for Family Saturday: Tape Abstraction. Participants will create their own tape relief paintings inspired by Robert Reed’s Plum Nellie, One, One, One, exhibited in Up to Us: Black Dimensions in Art 1975-Tomorrow. After viewing and discussing the artwork, participants are invited to create their own paintings using acrylic paint and tape on canvas.
Family Saturday programs foster multigenerational creative cooperation through looking at artwork, discussing it, and engaging in a hands-on art-making activity. Programs run from 2-3:30 pm and include a tour of selected works. All programs are free and open to the public, and suitable for children age 5 and older, accompanied by their adult companions. No registration required; supplies provided on a first-come, first-served basis.
