Calling all little ones and their grown-ups! This program welcomes children ages 2–5 and their adults into the museum before it opens to explore art together, focusing on the making and the doing rather than the final product. We will enjoy songs and story time led by Highland Park Library, look at a work of art, experience a new art-making process, and most importantly, have fun! This month, we’ll discover wild and whimsical shapes in Joan Miró’s paintings. Then, we’ll create our own surreal sculptures using playful materials and big imaginations.
