Four children play with scarves on a grey, circular mat, the Hirshhorn's fountain in the background.

Celebrate the Hirshhorn’s birthday by painting the Plaza with us at this week’s water-inspired Art Cart! Young artists will explore the properties of water, explore how artists use water in their art, and use water to paint their own work of art on the Hirshhorn Plaza.

Find the Art Cart on the Plaza near the Fountain. In case of inclement weather, check in the Museum Lobby for our indoor locations. 


Do this at home! Explore how artist Jiha Moon paints water in our Layered Landscapes project. Instructions here.  

An ethereal, square canvas composed of pastel colors is hangs from a bare, white wall.


ABOUT THE ART CART

Want to make art inspired by your favorite Hirshhorn works on view? The Art Cart offers young artists a hands-on maker experience during their visit to the Hirshhorn. Each week’s Art Cart offers a fresh and fun theme featuring an artwork on view, an art making activity to do at the Museum, and kids’ projects to extend the fun at home! 

The Art Cart is free; no registration required. Drop in any Saturday between 10am and 1pm.
