Family Art Saturday

Held the second Saturday of each month from 2 to 4 pm, Family Art Saturday invites children of all ages and their adult companions to explore UMOCA exhibitions and participate together in collaborative hands-on art making activities led by a trained educator. Projects are suitable for a wide variety of ages and abilities.

For many artists today, including the artists in our Analogital exhibition, the pixel (or square) becomes a building block for developing digital images creating everything from patterns to representations.

February's project will explore the pixel outside of the digital world. Using graph paper and markers, children will transform individual differently colored pixels grouped together into images similar to video game landscapes from the 1990′s.
