Kids at CAM: On the Road!

Saturday, July 10 | 10 AM – 12 PM

Location: Pine Valley Public Library

Kids at CAM is hitting the road! Join CAM at Pine Valley Public Library for a special offsite art-making experience in collaboration with New Hanover County Public Library’s summer reading theme, Color Our World.

In this workshop, we’ll explore creative ways to transform recycled books into new works of art through origami, illustration, collage, and more. There’s no limit to what your imagination can build!

Kids at CAM is a family-friendly program with hands-on art activities for all ages - parents included - led by CAM staff. While this program is taking place off-site, we invite you to join us at the museum for a family-friendly exhibition tour at 11:30 AM on future Saturdays.

Note: Registration for this program is handled by Pine Valley Public Library.
