Join us at the museum on select Saturday mornings for Studio KIDS! youth art-making workshops. We’ll take inspiration from artwork in the museum and the Besthoff Sculpture Garden and make our own creations with a teaching artist.

Studio KIDS!: Painting Like Matisse

In this hands-on workshop, participants will explore Fauvism, a style of painting known for its use of saturated colors and bold brushstrokes. Taking inspiration from colorful paintings by French artists such as Georges Braque and Raoul Dufy (both on view at NOMA), as well as Henri Matisse, participants will explore techniques for painting like les Fauves, using stencils, drawing pens, acrylic paint, and more.

Registration is $25 for members and $30 for other participants. Advance registration is required and includes the price of all art-making materials.

Studio KIDS! participants receive a 10% discount on purchases made at the NOMA Museum Shop. The discount is valid only for the day of their workshop attendance. Participants must show proof of attendance to receive the discount. Markdown and consignment merchandise is excluded from the discount.
