Join HCCC during Spring Break week for hands-on making and other activities that encourage visitors ages three and up to explore craft and art making! Although we are normally closed on Mondays, HCCC will be open all week for this event.

Each day, from 10 AM – 1 PM, participants can experiment with different materials, tools, and techniques, through hands-on activities demonstrated by teaching artists and volunteers.

Families are also invited to spend time in the galleries, sketching, looking at art, and talking with experienced docents. Visitors can explore the current exhibitions, Designing Motherhood and In Residence: 17th Edition, as well as our resident artist studios, to gain insight into the inspirations and artistic processes of working artists.  HCCC Spring Break is free and open to the public!

Hands-on activities require about 25 minutes to be completed. Activities will take place outdoors (weather permitting) and are on a first-come, first-served basis, while supplies last. Families and children ages three and up are welcome to participate. Materials are provided, and teaching artists and volunteers provide step-by-step instruction.
