We’ll take inspiration from artwork in the museum and the Besthoff Sculpture Garden and make our own creations with a teaching artist. \nStudio KIDS!: Haiku and Origami\nIn this hands-on workshop\,  participants will explore the beauty of Japanese art and poetry. Inspired by works on view in the Gitter Gallery\, participants will write their own haiku on delicate construction or washi paper\, then fold an origami envelope to hold their poem as a keepsake. Participants will be inspired by imagery found in traditional Japanese art\, such as cranes\, lotus\, pine trees\, and turtles\, while also discovering how nature and poetry intertwine. Participants will leave with both their handmade haiku and a deeper appreciation for the lasting bond between art\, language\, nature\, and culture. \nRegistration is $25 for members and $30 for other participants. Advance registration is required and includes the price of all art-making materials. \nStudio KIDS! participants receive a 10% discount on purchases made at the NOMA Museum Shop.
