Art isn’t just inside museums — sometimes it’s outside! Join us as we explore the larger-than-life sculptures on Boyd Plaza and create our own 3D works of art.
Gladys’ Gang is specially designed for 4- to 5-year-old participants and their adult companions to explore art through play and inquiry. This program builds skills for kindergarten readiness through story time, gallery conversations, and a creative studio project related to the art exploration theme. Siblings welcome! Rain or shine; in case of rain, the program will stick to covered areas on the plaza.
Free. Registration required for all participants as space is limited.
Sponsored by Publix Super Markets Charities.
