The Phillips Plays
Exploring Our Community
Bring your family to investigate materials, methods, and ideas in art.
What communities do you belong to? Take a closer look at Coin de la Rue Medard, Paris by Lois Mailou Jones and explore what makes our communities—both shared and different—unique. Then, find inspiration from and use city maps to create a collage of your own neighborhood block.
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.
