Saturdays are for young makers in the Creativity Labs!
How did people see their reflection before the mirrors we use today were invented? This week, we’ll explore ancient mirrors and how different surfaces reflect light. Then, you’ll make and decorate your own mirror. Drop in anytime between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. to explore a work of art, play with different materials, and exercise your imagination. We provide the materials, you bring the creativity!
All ages are welcome; children must be accompanied by an adult. No tickets or reservations required.
