Storytime: Motion of the Ocean
April 12, 2023 | 10:00 am–11:00 am
Use your imagination to travel to the ocean with the Hirshhorn and the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History at this week’s Storytime. Young artists will look closely at Pendour by Barbara Hepworth, read Over in the Ocean: In a Coral Reef, by Marianne Berkes, and use their imaginations to build a water-inspired world!
Meet in the Museum Lobby.
Do this at home! Imagine a faraway world and paint it with layers of watercolor. Instructions here.
