Join us for Family Day: Heart & Heritage, a joyful celebration honoring Black history, culture, and love. Families explore heritage, community, and care through hands-on artmaking inspired by ancestors, shared values, and traditions to collectively reflect on roots, connection, and legacy together.

 

 

1:00pm – 4:00pm:

 

Art Making Workshop: Heritage Heart Collages
Participants will create heart-shaped collages that represent their cultural roots, family traditions, and personal histories. Using patterned papers, fabric scraps, photos, and words, families reflect on what love looks like across generations.

 

Art Making Workshop: Community Love Wall
Love looks like us! Join us in creating art inspired by love and contribute to a wall that will be displayed in the museum for the day. What does love mean in your family? What does love mean to you? What do you want future generations to know about love? Write a note, leave an affirmation that you live by, and show us your definition of love.
