The Phillips Plays
Curating Bonnard
Bring your family to investigate materials, methods, and ideas in art.
Extend Bonnard’s Worlds by designing a miniature, 3-D paper gallery! What artworks will you connect to Bonnard’s gardens and interiors? What will the theme of your gallery be? Choose artworks from the museum’s collection or make your own to put next to tiny versions of Bonnard’s paintings. Family-friendly tours at 11 am and 12 pm.
In addition to exploring art materials and methods in the studio, families may enjoy the carpeted, creative-play area with blocks, books, toys, and games.
