Please forgive me but I am new to this, and failed to see or write about the collage I made for the new children's museum in San Diego, in the previous log. The new building opened in May and "provides a dynamic, playful public space and community center for children and families—a place to experience exciting art exhibitions, hands-on studio projects, performances, birthday parties, in-depth classes, camps and educational programs." “Our goal is to inspire children to think, play and create by providing accessible and meaningful art experiences,” stated Rachel Teagle PhD, Executive Director of the Museum. “We are a unique hybrid of a children’s museum and an art museum.” See more on their website: www.thinkplaycreate.org
As with all children's museums, there are plenty of hands-on activities, and many opportunities to question, like what is this?
(A) Giant Q-tips
(B) A birthday cake
(C) Your epidermis (skin)
(D) Growing daffodils
We truly enjoyed our experience at the museum, from painting a Volkswagon Beatle to blowing bubbles, playing amongst tires to swimming with dolphins. We walked away with plenty of photos, great memories and a bag full of artwork!! So, if you ever find yourselves in San Diego with the kids, it is a definite must see.
