Faces from Many Places!
This workshop will offer children ages 5 to 7 a look at lots of different faces in the paintings and sculptures of the Fogg and Busch-Reisinger galleries. Children will participate in gallery games, hear stories, and make art projects based on the faces they see.

Arts of the Islamic World: A Workshop for Children
In conjunction with our exhibition Overlapping Realms: Arts of the Islamic World and India, 900-1900, we are pleased to offer a workshop for children ages 8 to 12. Participants will learn to recognize several design elements within Islamic art, including geometric, calligraphic, floral, and figural examples. The workshop will include a guided look at the artworks in the exhibition, gallery activities, and creation of a hands-on art project to take home.

Tired of that same old soccer camp? Feel like adding a little art to your children's summer? Come to the Fogg Art Museum for our newly instituted Creative Art Adventures-enriching and stimulating experiences that will engage children ages 8 and up in looking at and creating art.

In addition to offering imaginative gallery and studio experiences, we'll ask kids to think about what inspired various artists to create their works. Participants will learn to recognize what inspires them and to work from those ideas to create their own works of art. We're delighted that artist and educator Deborah Putnoi will lead these sessions along with Art Museums staff.

Each session will include:

• Viewing artworks in the galleries and making art every day in 2- and 3-dimensional media
• A different theme and activities each day built around topics such as color, shape, sound, music (did you know that Paul Klee was a musician as well as an artist?), collage, paint, sculpture, and more
• Mid-morning snack
• All art materials

Give your children some summer fun while they learn to tap their own creative resources. Please bring sketchbooks, and wear clothes for messy projects.
