Saturday Studio Workshops

Saturday workshops combine gallery experiences with art-making in the studio. These workshops are offered one Saturday each month, and topics change regularly based on artwork and exhibitions in the museum. Participants explore the galleries and then get the chance to create their own artworks in the studio using a wide variety of media and techniques, from traditional to digital.

Selected Saturdays, 11:00–4:00

Join the Teen Council in this design studio to imagine, design, and prototype ideas that help us to re-imagine the museum experience. Designs can be entered into a citywide design competition!
