## About

The North Carolina Museum of Art's popular winter art-making afternoon returns. In the East Building studios, families drop in to create a giant, intricate paper snowflake to celebrate the coming winter solstice. It is open to all ages, free, and runs for three hours, so you can arrive whenever suits nap times. Younger children will want a grown-up's help with folding and cutting.
