Kohl’s Family Sundays: The Gift of Art

Welcome to a special online version of our popular family event: Kohl’s Family Sundays. Today we will be celebrating art and making creative gifts for family and friends. Create a collage, a storybook, or snowflakes to fill a room. Sing along with special guest Kai Simone, and make a winter treat with the Museum’s executive chef. Discover art in the Museum’s collection. And we want to see what YOU make. Share your Family Sundays–inspired art here.

Family Sundays are supported by:
