Maker Morning: RevelArte Celebration!

For kids (and adults!) of all ages

In Spanish, RevelArte means to reveal. Reveal your inner artist in this special celebration and bonus Maker Morning program! The Hirshhorn is partnering with DC Public Library and three local artists (Nicoletta de la Brown, Veronica Melendez, Carlos Carmonamedina) to explore places that are important to us. Materials will be available in both English and Spanish. Meet us on the Hirshhorn’s covered outdoor Plaza. 

Stroller parking is available.

Please note the majority of this event has been moved to the Hirshhorn’s covered outdoor Plaza due to anticipated weather.
