Family Day Art Workshop:
Moving Landscape
Tickets to this event only include admission to the workshop. All participants, except for children ages 6 and below, must purchase separate tickets for General Admission.
Participants may move around various areas in the museum and interact with each other by stretching, flexing, and swaying their bodies. We are able to make accommodations for wheelchair users and participants who are pregnant. We recommend families to wear loose clothing to freely take part in the event. Please see 'Event Arrangements' below for details.
If you and your family were trees in the woods, how would you embrace one another? If you were trees, large and small, inside a museum, would you sway in the wind and stay close to your loved ones?
Experiment with body and physical movements. In this workshop, M+ Educators will invite families to explore the diverse portrayals of life in the museum. Inspired by the works of international artists, families will morph into marvelous landscapes and wildlife. From buzzing flies to majestic waterfalls, you will imitate animals and landscapes using props inspired by the M+ collections with other families. Enjoy artmaking in a group setting and learn to use physical movement as a language to form dialogues. Sense the creativity that fills our world through this experience.
This workshop is co-produced by M+ Educators Brandon Chan and Nigel Yau, and the M+ Learning and Interpretation team. Complementing Individuals, Networks, Expressions, it prompts participants to discover visual culture through varying perspectives.
