 What's going on in SAMFA Education?


 

 Art Thursdays

Art Thursday is a free family program that features fun and educational art activities in SAMFA's Education Studio. Between 3 pm - 6 pm every Thursday, come and go as you please and create art with your family. Our activities change every few weeks!


Family Clay Days are coming back in the Spring of 2024!

Join us from 10 am -12 pm in SAMFA’s Education Studio to create art together as a family! Various art and clay activities will be offered throughout the morning, with a few sprinkled in.

Come roll the beads that will sing inside the Vegetable of your choice and decorate your new produce. Guest instructor, Ariel Bowman, will teach children how to make Ceramic Vegetable Rattles!

 The Education Department builds connections between SAMFA and the community- both local and global. We do this through gallery and studio programs and digital resources that provide an opportunity for people of all ages to imagine, think critically, discuss, and create.

Through our programs, we hope to create lifelong learners who understand art as a keystone for the livable and happy community.
