Join us Saturday, September 13, at 2 pm, for Family Saturday: Coffee Filter Paintings.
After viewing Crazy Green, Bruised Orange by Polly Apfelbaum in the exhibition All These Growing Things, participants will be invited to create their own fallen paintings using coffee filters, markers, and water.
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.
