Happy 2023! 🎆
Here are some activities to do to get the new year off to a great start! 🥂
Family Winter Carnival
The Family Winter Carnival ignites the Mardi Gras spirit in the youngest among us.
The annual event includes interactive displays, story time and hands-on projects to keep kids entertained. Children are also invited to design and submit their own Mardi Gras float using shoeboxes in a one-of-a-kind competition that will spark their creativity, challenge their craftiness and give them a taste of what it’s like to be the Mardi Gras parade director.
This event will take place on January 14th at Lift for Life Elementary School.
Workshop: Writing as Monument
In a two-day workshop with writer Maurice Tracy, participants will explore the Monumentale exhibition and engage with the work of artist Barbara Chase Riboud. You will discuss the work’s impact and then apply some of the artist’s techniques with bronze and fabric to language and our lives. At the end of this workshop you will leave with your own monument that you sculpt and create on the page.
Make sure to catch this on January 22nd, from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm, at Pulitzer Arts Foundation.
