To further celebrate the De’VIA exhibition on view at MAG through February 16, 2020, the Creative Workshop introduces new courses designed for Deaf and hard of hearing kids and adults. See more information about our new art classes taught with ASL. All CW classes and other MAG events are interpreted in ASL upon request.
Our fabulous all-day school break and summer art camps are designed for children ages 6–12. Kids enjoy high quality (and very fun) art projects, visits to the museum to see original works of art, lunch breaks, and daily recreation breaks.
Two age groupings—6–8 (junior) and 9–12 (senior)—allow kids to learn about art techniques, strategies, and materials as they make art they can be proud of.
