STORYTIME: Clamdigger

Join us as we imagine and re-enact the journey of a little clam. We’ll look at the sculpture Clamdigger by Willem de Kooning and read the book Necks Out for Adventure. Following the reading, we’ll create our own visual stories.

STORYTIME explores contemporary art through stories and movement. Museum staff will read aloud a book, introduce children to an artist in the collection, and lead a hands-on activity. Nursing moms welcome. Stroller parking is available in the Hirshhorn lobby. Groups of 10 or more should contact mcgettigant@si.edu to reserve a program in advance. An ASL Interpreter may be requested for this program. Two weeks advance notice is appreciated. Please note: snacks are not allowed inside the Museum, but you may eat outside on our Plaza before or after the program.
