Child participating in STORYTIME in garden

Can you imagine what the world might look like in the future? Join us for a close look at artist Giacomo Balla’s Futurist Flowers. We’ll dream about the future, and explore and make futuristic forms of our own. 

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


Do this at home! Transform used cardboard materials into futuristic sculptures! Instructions here.

Two colored used cardboard pieces have been cut out into vaguely tree-like shapes to form small sculptures.


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.
