Families create hands-on art projects inspired by discussion and activities in the galleries. This month, see how artists experiment with and push the boundaries of the painting medium in the exhibitions Fast Forward: Painting from the 1980s and Human Interest: Portraits from the Whitney’s Collection then create your own innovative paintings in the studio.

This program has been developed specifically for kids ages 6 to 10. Siblings are welcome to join the group but must have a ticket.
