Explore the possibilities of shapes and colors at this week’s Art Cart. Get inspired by artist Yayoi Kusama at this week’s Art Cart to explore color and shapes. Artists will look closely at her art and use polka-dots to create their own work of art.

Find the Art Cart on the Third Level and pick up circular materials.


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

A small, two-leafed plant grows out of a orange pumpkin-shaped pot featuring vertical patterns of polka dots.


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 artmaking 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 10 am and 1 pm.  

Nursing caregivers are welcome. Stroller parking is available in the Hirshhorn Lobby. If there are access services or accommodations that can make your experience more inclusive (e.g., ASL interpretation, live captioning, etc.), please contact hmsgeducation@si.edu. 1–2 week’s advance notice is recommended but not required.
