Bring the family for children’s workshops featuring themes from the 2024 The Lay of the Land exhibition. These guided workshops are mostly free of charge. Please check for times, age recommendations, and if specific sessions require free registration. All workshops will take place in the Family & Community Space.
Open to grades 1-6.
Inspired by the work of 2024 The Lay of the Land exhibition artist James Castle and Stephen Shore students will explore the concept of home and create their own life-size cardboard playhouse. Taking a page from Castle’s use of everyday found materials and recycled surfaces, students will build their dream home out of cardboard boxes and string, and will paint on the structures with tempera. Homes will be able to collapse flat for take home use and be easily reassembled for play spaces. This workshop is free and open to the public, registration recommended to ensure material preparation by instructor.
