While the Milwaukee Art Museum re-opens to the pubic with a day of free admission on Friday, March 5, in-person events are still on hold, but there are some great virtual events on the horizon for the whole family.
Beginning Sunday, March 14, MAM invites families to go online for Kohlâs Family Sundays at Home: Needle and Thread. The free virtual event features a tour of fabric art at the museum, how-to videos from the museumâs team of educators and musical performances.
Participants will learn to make their own mini quilts from scraps of fabric, bracelets from yarn and how to draw with thread. Wisconsin artists Rhonda Gatlin-Hayes and Heidi Parkes will give visitors a peek inside their studios and share their fabric collage and quilting techniques.
