Patchwork Portraits @ MoPA
October 6th – dECember 9th
Every face tells a story… what’s yours?
At MoPA from October 6th to December 9th, we’re getting emotional — literally! Children will have the opportunity to create one-of-a-kind Patchwork Portraits, complete with grins, frowns, smirks and giggles.
By playing with different expressions, little artists get to explore their feelings in a fun, hands-on way. The result? More confidence, more creativity, and a whole lotta personality staring back at them from the page.
It’s all included in your ticket — and it’s going to be a face-tastic time.
