See All Events

Tuesday, August 5, 2025

10:00 am - 3:00 pm

Location: KIDS ROCKWELL Art Lab

Included with Museum admission | No registration required

Our Summer Explorers self-guided program is designed for families and children ages 5 – 12. Drop in anytime to participate in artmaking workshops and gallery activities that encourage families to play with color and engage with art. New themes, projects, and activities will be offered each week. 

This week’s Summer Explorers program includes: 

  • Create a colorful sculpture to display on your wall! Visitors will use plaster and a variety of ephemera to make three-dimensional art. Our special plaster-mixing technique is kid-friendly and ensures minimal mess! 
  • Spy, Think, Ponder art card sets highlight works of art in The Rockwell’s collection, tied to the weekly theme. The art cards incorporate youth-friendly language and fun prompts to engage your child’s imagination.  
  • Art Hunts are a great way to search the Museum galleries and find details in the artwork. 
  • Simple gallery games available on the Art Cart in the galleries will stimulate self-guided exploration with loved ones to foster art appreciation and museum exploration.
