The Art Museum of Southeast Texas will present its spring Free Family Arts Day, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., May 18.
Art activities are inspired by AMSET’s current exhibitions. “Jooyoung Choi: Big Time Dreaming in the Age of Uncertainty” features soft sculptures, mixed media paintings, and a video station, and “Jules Buck Jones: Future Fossils” includes large-scale, mixed media paintings, drawings, and an installation featuring a 36-foot suspended sculpture of a Mosasaur, influenced by biological concerns, mythology, fact and fiction.
Children and their families will create their own innovative artwork such as Felt Flowers, Mosasaur Mask-Asaurs, Nature Silhouettes, Puppets, and Potato Rocks.
Complimentary cookies and punch will be provided as well as live entertainment. A concession stand serving ballpark-style food will be available, as well as free face painting.
Admission to this event is free and open to the public.
