Storytime: A Trip to the Hirshhorn
September 6, 2023 | 10:00 am–11:00 am
Ignite your child’s imagination with a trip to the Hirshhorn. We will read the story Matthew’s Dream by Leo Lionni, a book about a young mouse who visits a museum and realizes that art can change the way we see the world. Following the story, participants will create their own visual stories.
Meet in the Museum Lobby.
Do this at home! Explore abstract painting through layers of watercolor. Instructions here.

An ASL Interpreter may be requested for this program; two weeks advance notice is appreciated. For a group of ten or more, please contact mcgettigant@si.edu to reserve a program in advance.
