Hand's On Art

SCHOOL'S OUT/ART'S IN

Come to the KMA on select school vacation days and join teaching artists for unique art projects inspired by the works on view. Children ages 3-6 participate with an adult; 7 and older can participate on their own, although parent/caregiver must remain at the Museum
