Free
Bring the entire family to Play Day at MCASD this month on Free Second Sunday for our free family series, Play Day!
Inspired by the found-object piece in For Dear Life: Art, Medicine, and Disability, Medicine Woman (1993) by Beverly Buchanan, we will make sculptures using recycled materials, popsicle sticks, clay, and seeds that will blossom into plants.
Art Activity: Create your own sprouting sculpture and learn about the cycles of life.
Schedule:
- At 11AM, explore works from MCASD's new exhibition For Dear Life: Art, Medicine, and Disability through a kid friendly tour.
- At 12:30PM, listen to stories, songs, and rhymes in Storytime with Librarian on the Go, Ms. Katia Graham
- From 11AM-2PM, enjoy music by a local DJ, a cozy book nook, sketching with water, and book recommendations from the Librarian on the Go. Participate in a communal art project on McGrath Terrace and create a sprouting sculpture.
*Museum admission is free from 11AM – 5PM for all visitors, with Play Day offerings happening between 11AM – 2PM.
No RSVPs are required for Play Day admission.
