ARTSmart
Sign up by joining Beach Buddies Facebook Group!
Beach Buddies is the museum’s Facebook group with resources and fun activities for children, families, and educators.
ARTSmart weekly classes are designed for preschool children and up. Each class will begin with a looking activity focused on a work from the museum’s collection, followed by information about the artist, an academic connection, a story book suggestion and an art project.
Classes will post to the Beach Buddies Facebook Group on Mondays and Wednesday Nov. 30-Dec. 23 with winter nature art themes. Families may also opt to have ARTSmart units emailed to them on Mondays. Please contact Associate Curator of Education Kathrine Schlageck at klwalk@ksu.edu to be added to the email list.
Enjoy the series:
Voices: Artists Who Inspire. This series is prompted by the book Between the Lines, a biography of African-American artist Ernie Barnes. It features artists represented in the collection of the Marianna Kistler Beach Museum of Art. We hope these biographies will provide creative encouragement for all young artists.
