Bring the whole family and have an ArtVenture at the Henry!
Artists Zack and Gala Bent and their three sons are The Recreation Institute. Join them in investigating the ways that we are similar to and different from other species. Are there ways we can use our imaginations to see the world from different eyes or feel the world through different skin?
The Recreation Institute will lead participants through Ann Hamilton: the common S E N S E and explore the ways that Hamilton reveals our similarities and differences. Then together we'll create a large-scale "teamwork drawing," encouraging each kid and adult to consider their own sense perceptions and adding those thoughts and ideas to the image to create a big hybrid creature.
Henry Art Gallery is accessible to all visitors. Please notify the staff of any special needs or concerns when planning to attend this event.
