Create Your Own: Ancient Art Supplies

Programs

April 4, 2015 11:00am - 12:00pm

Kids and families will make and take home their own artifacts in this art workshop. Each workshop features a short talk followed by hands-on art making. Ideal for families with children ages 8 and up, this experience is about 40 minutes in length. Museum members may make advance reservations by calling (512) 936-4649. Otherwise, the program is first come, first served and space is limited. Pick up a boarding pass (free with Museum admission) when you arrive.

People have been drawing and painting for thousands of years, but haven't always had the same access to art supplies that we have today. Find out how American Indians made paintbrushes and paint, and make your own to use.
