Today’s Program: Sculpting is one of the oldest styles of art in the world. Join us on the second floor in the new exhibit A Living Room as we use the art to inspire sculpture. See what fun and funky furniture you can come up with! Free clay is provided to use and you’re encouraged to use the art as your muse! Experiment and see what unusual units you can conjure up with your clay, then feel free to take your wonderous creation home.
