Our littlest visitors and their families are invited to explore toddler-centered folk art, craft, and design!
On July 18, we'll meet outside by the Nikigator where we'll explore the art of camouflage by reading "Hide and Snake" by Keith Baker, a story that shows just how good snakes are at hiding. After the story, we will create our own colorful snakes and find creative ways to hide them.
Mini Mingei is perfect for parents, grandparents, and caregivers with children ages 2–5. These events are free for Mingei Members. General admission is $12 for one adult and one child (includes Mingei Passport holders). Each additional adult or child is $5.
