Critter Kits available for purchase to participate from home
Be a part of our 11th Annual Clyde’s Holiday by the Sea! It’s a different kind of year so we are offering our annual family event in a different kind of way! AT HOME or IN PERSON. With everyone’s safety in mind, we have devised two ways you can join in the collaborative community fun.
Want to be a part of our community installation from your own home? No problem! You can purchase a Clyde’s Critter Art Kit and drop off your completed Critter. It will be added to our Clyde’s Holiday by the Sea Community Installation, on display at the corner of 17th and Independence throughout the month of December.
Your Critter Kit includes:
- Paint (every kit has a different assortment of colors, so they will come out
- unique and colorful just like Clyde Jones' critters!)
- 2 Brushes
- One Clyde Critter (to contribute to the community installation
- 2 Wooden Ornaments (to keep for yourself!)
- 2 Markers
- 1 Glitter Glue Pen
Pick up your Critter Kit beginning November 4th anytime during regular CAM hours at the front desk (Tuesday – Sunday 10 AM to 5 PM, Thursdays 10 AM to 8 PM). You must return your finished Critter by Saturday, November 21st for it to be added to the installation.
You can also join us for an outdoor, socially distanced Critter Creation event on Saturday, November 21st from 10 AM to 12 PM. You will need to pre-register for a half hour spot, so we can ensure safe social distancing and participation. Your registration includes a designated area to work, a Critter Kit, a Clyde Critter, and a pack of wipes. We ask that everyone respect the time frame you sign up for and leave at the end of your half hour so CAM staff can clean your working area for the next family. Masks are required if you enter CAM or Pancoe Education Center.
Music Bird Studios provides interactive entertainment! Make Music, dance and move with an animal theme. Socially distant mats will be provided so you can have silly, socially distanced fun. You can also enjoy the performance from home by watching it on Facebook Live from the Cameron Art Museum facebook page.
DISCLAIMER: Parental supervision required when handling and painting critters. In the tradition of Clyde Jones’ art and our annual event, the critters are recycled year to year. The wood is not sanded and has layers of paint, so please have adults handle the critter and be careful when working. Outside only use recommended.
