School’s out? Art’s in! Join us for our vacation week workshops during February. Allow your children to delve into fun and exciting projects in a Museum setting. Give your children a break from their regular school day with an unconventional way to exercise their brain. Vacation workshops provide a creative hands-on experience with programs for ages 3-17. All workshops include a visit to the Museum galleries and interaction with professional artists and educators. The goal of the program is to develop important skills that lead to increased creativity, helping students make their own work of art.

Vacation week workshops provide a strong introduction to the Museum’s collection and a helping hand to guide student’s creativity.For more in depth instruction, we encourage you to explore our youth art class program at www.worcesterart.org which provides sequential art classes throughout the year. In addition, we at WAM feel that it is important to support your child’s school art program.
