In celebration of cherry blossoms, join us for a spring inspired Art Cart. We’ll take a close look at artist Hiroshi Sugimoto’s Two Circles, supply nature-inspired books and materials, and make our own blossom-inspired artworks.

Find the Art Cart on the Plaza, and pick up your blooming materials. In case of inclement weather, check in the Museum Lobby for our indoor locations. 


Do this at home! If you could be anything from nature, what would you be? This project, inspired by artist Thierry de Cordier, encourages young artists to create a self-portrait using natural items. Instructions here.

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 Thursday between 10am–Noon.
