Family Day

 

 Family Clay Days are coming back in the Spring of 2024!  

Family Clay Day is back! Join us from 10 am -12 pm in SAMFA’s Education Studio to create art together as a family!
Included with the Clay activity, 2 more Fine Art activities will be offered in the studio at this time, with a few special guests sprinkled in.

The First of our Free projects is a Quilted Ceramic Heart, in which you use hand-building skills, lace, and other textures to design your own Quilt-like heart puff, inspired by one of our current exhibits, Microscape. Prehistoric Clay Animals will soon be found in our studio thanks to special guest artist, Ariel Bowman. With her skilled background, she is going to teach us how to make our own Extinct Animals come back to life! Last but certainly not least, we can hear the call of Summer with our special Ceramic Vegetable Rattles! Come roll the beads that will sing inside the Vegetable of your choice and decorate your new produce.

The San Angelo Museum of Fine Arts Family Day program is hosted monthly and free of charge to community members. Family Day provides a participatory exploration of global cultures and themes based on SAMFA’s collections. This cultural and thematic exploration is achieved by utilizing the entire museum facilities to provide extensive displays of artifacts, a variety of food samples (including visitor participation in cooking), live music and/or cultural performances, and four or more visual art hands-on projects. In addition, there is no admission fee to the Museum’s current exhibits during Family Day.
