Target First Saturdays for Families: Colorful Transformations

Part of New Museum First Saturdays for Families
 
Family Programs

Explore C.L.U.E. (color location ultimate experience), a collaboration between artists A.L. Steiner and robbinschilds (Layla Childs and Sonya Robbins), AJ Blandford, and Kinski. Like a living organism, C.L.U.E. adapts to the space it temporarily occupies. Participate with your family in a hands-on workshop to create T-shirts* inspired by the New Museum’s landscape and the bold colors presented in C.L.U.E.

From 11:30 a.m.–12:30 p.m., families are invited into our theater to view a 30-minute program of short films provided by Brooklyn International Film Festival’s kidsfilmfest.

Target First Saturdays for Families are free of charge. This program is designed for families with children 5 to 15 years old, and includes free New Museum admission for up to 3 adults per family. Children under 18 are always admitted free. No preregistration is required. Tickets are given out on a first-come, first-served basis.

*T-shirts are limited to one per child, and are available so long as supplies last.
