Contemporary Kids

With Guest Artist Kristan Woolford


Join us for a family-friendly art workshop as part of the Contemporary Kids program, where kids of all ages can explore their creativity and engage with the themes of contemporary art!

This drop-in event is inspired by Free the Land (2023), the stunning work by Atlanta-born artist Kristan Woolford.

During this workshop, artist Makiko Maekawa, along with Kristan Woolford, will guide young artists in creating their own contemporary art projects. Using a variety of materials like paint, paper, and objects, participants will explore how to express themselves through the lens of kinetic art.

Event Details:

Drop-in format: Doors open at 12 PM, and visitors can start their project any time until 2 PM.

Time to complete: Most participants finish their artwork in 30-45 minutes.

Explore the exhibitions: After completing their projects, kids and families are welcome to explore the exhibitions at their own pace.

This event is open to all ages, so bring the whole family for a creative and meaningful afternoon of art-making.

Free Parking is available at the lot on Bankhead & Means Street (Google Maps Location). Access the lot via Bankhead Avenue, passing the parking attendant booth.
