Get ready for a burst of color and creativity with Confetti Canvas Creations! Young artists will design and paint their very own canvas masterpiece, then craft and decorate a confetti popper to celebrate their creativity. Once the artwork is complete, the real fun begins—pop, toss, and cheer as confetti fills the air in a dazzling display! This hands-on activity can get a little messy and is best suited for children ages 8-12, as it involves multiple steps. Let’s create, celebrate, and make a masterpiece of memories!

Get ready to dot, dot, dot your way to a masterpiece! Inspired by the colorful technique of pointillism, young artists will explore artwork from the museum’s collection before creating their own vibrant designs—one dot at a time! Using Q-tips as their painting tool, they’ll bring their creativity to life in a fun and hands-on way. This activity can get a little messy and is perfect for little artists ages 2 and up.

Explore the museum and uncover hidden treasures! Use picture clues to find exciting artifacts like the dragon boat, a baby elephant in a Thailand celebration, and tiny details in our Youth Art collection.

Once you’ve found them all, bring your scavenger hunt sheet to the front desk for your official Museum Explorer stamp! Best for ages 3 and up, with picture clues for beginning readers to follow independently. Let the adventure begin!
