About “Teen Thursdays”

“Teen Thursdays” are designed to welcome audiences aged 13–19 to engage with the museum's collection in a meaningful way. We will make art, have fun, and hang out with like-minded students interested in art, creativity, and creating community together. Each session will include a themed art-making activity, an invitation to explore the galleries, refreshments, behind-the-scenes access to the museum, and a designated space to hang out.
