After exploring Victor Ekpuk’s vast chalk drawing on black walls in Sixfold Symmetry: Pattern in Art and Science, we will make drawings of our hands with repeated patterns, using colored pencils and crayons that show up brightly on black paper.

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 programs are free and open to the public, and suitable for children ages 5 and older, accompanied by their adult companions. Materials are provided. Reservations are required—for additional information and reservations, call the Tang’s Visitor Service Desk at 518-580-8080.
