## About

The North Carolina Museum of Art's monthly program for preschoolers. Children aged three to five and their caregivers meet a work of art in the galleries, then head to the studios to make their own artwork, with stories, movement activities and gallery play along the way. Each session lasts an hour on a Wednesday morning and has a new theme. Tickets are per child; adults and siblings under three come free. Book ahead, as studio space is limited.
