Free Art Island Outpost
Entering its fourth year of partnership with Governors Island, CMA’s Free Art Island Outpost programming will run every Saturday and Sunday during the 2012 public access season. With an emphasis on children ages 1-8 years, participants can choose from several outdoor art activities, including artist-led workshops,self-guided art stations, large collaborative projects, sound design and podcasting. Additionally, emerging filmmakers can explore the art of animation, using a variety of artistic mediums such as collage, puppets, sculpture, and clay. Original child-made films will be screened and select artwork from the museum’s permanent collection of over 2,000 pieces of children’s artwork will be on display.
Stay Tuned for Updates as we get closer to May, 2012!
