Hands ON! Second Saturday – Winter Wonderland
Get in the holiday spirit at this special Estelle J. Kelsey Foundation Hands ON! Second Saturday. This fun-filled community day offers free admission, hands-on art activities, a hot chocolate bar, a special rendition of ‘The Grinch’ and ‘The Nutcracker’ as well as storytelling, docent-guided tours, and even a special book signing event. Art Expeditions provides children the opportunity to engage with Museum staff and take a closer look at current works on view.
This is also our annual Museum School Open House, and the Museum School is offering a 20% discount on upcoming class registrations for this day only!
Also, join us in the new Bretzlaff Book Shop for book signings with Nevada Poet Laureate Shaun Griffin, authors Michael Branch and Mark Curtis, artist Craig Mitchell, writer/photographer Scott Mortimore and more!
