Make and Paint Friday! – Downtown

Bring your child to the Downtown Art Studio for an open art-making session where kids can explore painting in a relaxed, creative environment. Each month on the last Friday, children and their grown-ups have access to time, space, and water-based paints to experiment freely. This program works wonderfully for children ages 3 and up, giving them room to try new techniques and express themselves through color and brush work. The session runs for two hours, and admission is included with your museum ticket—no separate fee required. It's a straightforward way to spend a Friday afternoon doing hands-on art together, without pressure or structured instruction. Just bring your child ready to have fun and get a little messy with paint.
