January 13, 2026 10 a.m.–12:30 p.m.

Our series of themed art lessons will engage young minds and hands!

Explore still lifes in the galleries and then join us in the Creativity Labs to make your own mixed-media still life. We'll examine how everyday objects can be arranged to tell a story, and we'll experiment with negative space, layering, and shadows. 

All ages are welcome; no tickets or reservations required.
