Animation: Art Goes to the Movies
The Kohl’s Art Generation Gallery is open during Museum hours.
Discover how paintings, sculptures, and other works of art have played a role in animated movies such as Disney’s Beauty and the Beast, DreamWorks’ Madagascar, Universal Studios’ The Tales of Despereaux, and more. Learn how animation artists develop their characters and get them to move, and try your hand at stop motion animation.
