    “Art, Artists & You” At Children's Museum of Manhattan

    This exhibition may have opened June 2, but the museum keeps adding to it, and will continue to add through the fall! Art, Artists & You is both an exhibition and an interactive space. Kids and their parents can harness art as a means of expressing identity, whether it’s through stop-motion animation, model crafting, or a wall hanging collaboration.

    Children can build paper-pulp sculptures, three-dimensional cardboard models, or found-object forts as well as try crocheting, weaving, knitting, beading, and stuffed-animal or soft-sculpture crafting. There are tech offerings too: Green screen video filming, invention kits, three-dimensional printer pens, and more. “Art, Artists & You” features four artists-in-residence; they will change in September. “Art, Artists & You” runs through December 31, 2018. cmom.org
