Celebrate artful, sculptural objects in a hands-on art workshop for young artists with Colleen Fitzsimmons-Wiviott. Inspired by the Crown Jewels: Donation Highlights exhibition, Colleen will teach different painting and collage techniques to create a sizeable collaborative chess piece celebrating rare and ornate chess sets in the collection. Then, create your take-home chess piece sculptures with air-drying clay, fun jewels, and more!
Recommended for children ages 3-6 and their caregivers.
