Small Frye: Story Time + Art

Small Frye: Story Time + Art

Shape, Color, and Imagination

Advance registration for this event is full. Please email learning@fryemuseum.org to be added to a waitlist for the event.

Enjoy a lively reading of Mouse Shapes by Ellen Stoll Walsh in the galleries, then explore how artist Jonathan Lasker combines line, shape, color, and texture to build playful abstract compositions.

In the Studio, children and caregivers will layer and arrange bold forms inspired by Lasker’s visual language to create abstract artworks of their own.

The activity supports tactile exploration, fine motor skills, creative decision making, and collaborative art making.

 

Small Frye is free, but registration is required. Space is limited—sign up early!
