The Walters Summer Art Adventures 2020

Overview:

The is excited to offer FREE Summer Art Adventures: Museum at Home Edition. All activities are geared toward children ages 6 to 11.

Art Kits include art supplies and an activity packet with images from the Walters’ collection, a scavenger hunt, coloring page, and directions for an art project. These limited-edition kits are available in English and Spanish and will be distributed in August at City Public Schools Emergency Distribution Sites.

Summer Art Adventures also includes live virtual workshops led by Walters educators on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from July 20-August 14; art-making videos; and downloadable activity packets. All of these free resources are available at https://thewalters.org/experience/virtual/summer/.

Notes for Art Kit distribution site staff:

● All packets are in English and Spanish, so families don’t need to choose one or the other. ● At the end of the packet there’s an email address to share photos of children’s artwork with the Walters. We’ll add it to our online gallery and share via social media. Please include first name and age if you would like your photos shared! ● At the end of the packet there’s also a url for a short survey. We would greatly appreciate feedback if families have access (can be completed on a phone!). ● Each distribution site will get 1 of 4 different art projects. Families can access the other 3 art projects, as well as videos with more art-making activities, on the Walters website: https://thewalters.org/experience/virtual/summer/ (they’ll just need to procure their own art supplies, some of which families may have around the house).
