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.
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.
