Storytime: Boos, Books and Blankets

Celebrate Halloween at the Hirshhorn at this week’s Storytime. Join us in your best creative costume, or come as you are to explore mysterious artworks at the Museum. Young artists will look closely at sculptures on the Plaza, cozy up for a read-aloud of Itsy Bitsy Spider by Emily Bannister, and design their own scary sculptures. 

Meet in the Museum Lobby.

Do this at home! Create your own pinch pot inspired by artist Yayoi Kusama. Instructions here.
