Join Laurie and our Art Studio staff for a weekly drop-in art experience designed for MCM’s youngest visitors and their caregivers. Through open-ended & process-based projects, empower your little artist to freely explore materials and art-making with their senses. And the best part? We take care of cleanup! Today, we’ll give tiny toy cars a custom paint job.
This event is free with general museum admission.
Explore new materials and creative techniques through facilitated art activities and bring home hand-made treasures. Projects vary each week and may include sculpture, painting, comics, printmaking, and more!

Ring the bell: it’s time for recess! Bundle up and head outside to the Wonderground for an active play break at 11 am every Saturday in January and February. Today, join Nora Phillips from Madison Circus Space to play with hula hoops and marvel at Nora’s hooping talents.

Explore the squishy, smudgy, sculptable world of clay! Today we’ll “make and take” our very own dragons with model magic.
