After watching William Kentridge’s animation in the exhibition Beauty and Bite, we will create our own moving drawings in the form of either a flip book or layers of clear acetate! Let’s make a movie!

Family Saturdays foster multigenerational creative cooperation through looking at artwork, discussing it, and engaging in a hands-on art activity. Most programs run from 2:00 – 3:30 pm and include a tour of a specific exhibition.  

All Family Saturdays are free and open to the public, and suitable for children ages 5 and older, accompanied by their adult companions.

All materials provided; be prepared to get messy and have fun. And dress accordingly!

Reservations are required and may be made one week in advance of each program. For additional information and reservations, call the Tang’s Visitor Service Desk at 518-580-8080.
