The International Museum of Art & Science (IMAS), an Affiliate of the Smithsonian Institution, has been awarded a $15,000 grant from H-E-B Helping Here supporting art and culture, removing the financial barrier for unique informal, family learning experiences. Programs include a virtual Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) program, free admission days and monthly virtual Workshop Wednesday programming with free supply kits.
Workshop Wednesdays feature monthly videos on art techniques, artists, and art movements. Viewers will also have the option of picking up a free supply kit for the workshop at the museum beforehand. Visit theimasonline.org for program kit registration throughout the year.
Workshop Wednesdays Are Presented by H-E-B Helping Here.
