Stanley Museum of Art

The winter season wouldn’t be complete without a snowy art project on your day off from school! Children will create their very own winter wonderland using cutting, pasting, and coloring techniques that will develop their understanding of depth, scale, and composition.

Please arrive in time for children to settle in and begin the project at 2 p.m.
