Saturdays are for young makers in the Creativity Labs!

Let’s work together to make a quilt about community, like the artist Marie Watt. Use paper, fabric, and other materials to create a square to take home—or add it to our Art for Families quilt. 

Visit us any time between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. to explore a work of art, play with different materials, and exercise your imagination. No tickets or registration required—just drop in as your schedule allows! All ages are welcome; children must be accompanied by an adult.
