Art Detectives: Kicks by Van G. Garrett

Art Detectives: Kicks by Van G. Garrett

Grab your favorite pair of sneakers and come along for March Art Detectives! We’ll explore Future Now: Virtual Sneakers to Cutting-Edge Kicks, enjoy a story about amazing footwear, and spot some eye-catching shoes in the galleries. Afterward, Wellspring dancers will help us get up and groove in our cool kicks.

We won’t make a project during Art Detectives this time—but if you still want to create, hang around for Community Day!

Future Now: Virtual Sneakers to Cutting-Edge Kicks is co-organized by the American Federation of Arts and the Bata Shoe Museum, and curated by Elizabeth Semmelhack, Director and Senior Curator of the Bata Shoe Museum.

Please note that this event will not be livestreamed or posted on YouTube.
Art Detectives is a free program for children 4-8 years old (but all ages are welcome). Join us as we read a story, look at art, and make a project to take home. Caregivers must stay with their children at all times. This is a free program; preregistration is encouraged. Adults, remember to register your children!
