Art Hangout
The Art Hangout is a dynamic, open-space studio where visitors can freely explore their creativity, engage with diverse artistic mediums, and discover their own unique forms of expression. Our goal is to provide an inspiring environment that fosters collaboration, self-discovery and artistic growth.
Through facilitation and individual exploration, visitors are introduced to artistic skills and techniques and allowed to experience a variety of artistic practices. Those who explore this space are encouraged through open-ended opportunities to explore and experiment at their own pace, creating a personalized and memorable learning experience.

This March, we’re celebrating Women’s History Month by exploring the work of four incredible female artists who have made lasting impacts on the world of art. Each week, join us for hands-on activities that let children express their creativity while learning about these trailblazing women.
