STORYTIME: A Bad Case of Stripes

Join us for a close look at paintings by Sean Scully. Then, we’ll examine read-aloud of A Bad Case of Stripes by David Shannon and create our own self-portraits using shapes, lines, and colors.

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.
