For kids ages 5–10

Welcome to After School Art Club, a free weekly online program with Whitney educators! Kids ages 5 to 10 are invited to experiment and make art with at-home art materials. Tell a friend and join the club!

This week’s activity is inspired by Florine Stettheimer. We will learn about Stettheimer’s painting of her home, New York City, created when the U.S. was celebrating the end of World War I. Then we will think about the people and places we love, and create our own personal story maps!
