Event Description

We aren’t scared of these shadows! This month, we’re playing with pattern, light, and shadow in Anila Quayyum Agha: A Beautiful Despair. Join us for storytime featuring Leila in Saffron by Rukhsanna Guidroz, explore Anila Agha’s intricate drawings and sculptures, and create your own shadow-puppet play together as a family.

You can purchase Leila in Saffron in the Museum Shop.

Join us each month for Carter Playdate, our free program for children ages 3 to 5 and their families.

American Sign Language (ASL) interpretation may be provided during this event upon advance request.

Learn about our current health and safety protocols.
