Summer 2024: Building Blocks, Woodworking, and Family Fun!

Summer’s here and school’s out! Even while our Craft in Schools program takes a short summer break, our Craft in America Center team is hosting all kinds of eclectic crafting workshops, artist-musician events, and talks – not to be missed! 

Drop-In Fun: Summer ‘24 Family Activity Sheets

We welcome young creatives, their friends and families to come enjoy our AC alongside this summer’s Building Blocks: Process & Wood exhibition (all free of charge). We’re excited to host some creative and fun activities, suitable for youth ages preK-8th grade; with past times that will entertain young visitors with (pictured below):

  • a drawing/coloring station
  • a playful scavenger-hunt through our exhibition
  • an intro to woodworking ideas
  • short technique-video clips on how craft artists make their art in studios
  • & small surprise prizes!
