Art for Tots: The Art of Jaune Quick-to-See Smith

  • The Children's Museum & Theatre of Maine 250 Thompsons Point Rd Portland, ME, 04102 United States (map)

Explore, create, and collaborate during this drop-in class for 2-to-5 year-olds and their caregivers. Each week, experiment with the mediums and styles of both well-known and emerging artists.

This week, we will be focusing on the work of Native American visual artist and cultural arts worker Jaune Quick-to-See Smith. She is an enrolled Salish member of the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes and is known for her complex abstract paintings and prints. Visitors will have the opportunity to create monoprints by painting onto a smooth surface and then transferring the picture onto paper.

Please plan for a messy but fun morning; aprons will be provided. Thank you to Hancock Lumber for their support of this program and CMTM's MakerSpace.
