Studio Workshops
Explore new materials and techniques in our Studio Workshops in Artopia. These 90-minute, hands-on artmaking sessions offer a welcoming introduction to artmaking through guided instruction and creative exploration.
Led by NCM’s Teaching Artist, each project invites participants to try techniques inspired by art, craft, and practicing artists. Workshops are currently offered for Youth (ages 7–11) and Teens (ages 12–15). No previous art experience is necessary, and all materials are included.
Advance registration is required. Museum admission is not included and must be purchased separately.
