Artists in Action members paint "en plein air" in front of Gilbert House

Artists in Action members, Toni T., Dorothy E. and Maggie S. bring their creativity to the Riverfront Park as they paint "en plein air" in front of children's museum.













The Gilbert House, a watercolor painting in progress by Dorothy E.


Two line drawings of The Gilbert House are rendered "en plein air" as part of the "Paint the Town" series through Artists in Action.

A Bunch of Big Kids

This week museum staff—22 in all—gathered for teambuilding activities and to review the museum’s strategic plan. Embracing the philosophy that “playing is essential to learning,” staff juggled fuzzy dice and wiggled through hula hoops under the playful guidance of Jennie Madland, current board member and former education director at the museum.

Try this at home! Can you lower a hula hoop with just the tips of your fingers? It's harder than it looks.

Museum staff are expert jugglers. We know how to have fun and learn at the same time!

Teamwork!

Thank you volunteers!
