The museum runs a free Thursday afternoon art session most weeks, working through materials and techniques borrowed from artists on view. Projects range from geometric shape painting to a Basquiat-inspired dinosaur build. The printed schedule also lists a session for September 8, but that date falls on a Tuesday, not a Thursday, so check with the museum first.
