Saturdays are for young makers in the Creativity Labs! Stop by and make your own 3D garden inspired by the Impressionist artist, Claude Monet.
Drop in anytime between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. to explore a work of art, play with different materials, and stretch your imagination. Come for fifteen minutes or two hours—whatever your schedule allows. All ages are welcome; no tickets or reservations required.
Claude Monet loved painting his gardens and painted them often, capturing the brilliant colors and light at different times of day. Explore Water Lilies and Japanese Bridge (1899), and then create your own 3D garden that jumps off the paper. We provide the materials, you bring the creativity!
