Event Details

Art Club is a fun and creative program which spotlights a different artist each week.  Kids will listen to a story and create their own works of art inspired by artists such as Jean-Michel Basquiat, Wassily Kandinsky, Gustav Klimt, Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, Romare Bearden, and Vincent Van Gogh.

A poet, musician, and graffiti prodigy in late-1970s New York, Jean-Michel Basquiat had honed his signature painting style of scribbling, elusive symbols and diagrams, and mask-and-skull imagery by the time he was 20.  Listen to a story, learn about Basquiat's life and art techniques, and create your own work of art inspired by him. 

Register online and pick up your art kit at the Children's Desk beginning January 2.
