Inspired by the artwork Touched By the Tears of a Butterfly by Mike MacDonald, we’re getting ready for spring… and butterflies! Come join us in the studio, where we’ll make our own paper using flower and butterfly-shaped molds, studded with native wildflowers seeds! Just plant it in a pot or the ground to let it bloom into a bright pollinator garden for the bees and butterflies this spring!  

Work independently, or with your small group, this program is great for children ages 5+ with an adult. Drop-in, included with the price of admission.

About the program:

Make Day is a studio program for emerging artists of all ages! Designed as an intergenerational art workshop, these sessions lead participants in a short art lesson that introduces an art technique or process, resulting in a fun art piece you can take home. A great way to get connected, inspired, and creative with friends or family. Each month’s activity is inspired by works in an exhibition currently on view.
