🎨 Something colorful and inspiring is coming to the museum this Saturday morning!

We’re excited to welcome Portraits of Hope to the museum for a special community art project from 9:00–11:00 a.m.!

The museum will open early at 9:00 a.m. so families and visitors can stop by and take part in this incredible collaborative experience. Portraits of Hope is known for bringing communities together through large-scale public art projects that inspire creativity, teamwork, and hope.

This project is best suited for children ages 8 and up, as that is the age group Portraits of Hope typically works with during their community art installations.

Come add your creativity to the project and be part of something meaningful!
