Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art

The Teen Chalk Art Festival is making its return this spring! If you or a group of friends would like to participate as artists, sign up here! Its free, and we supply all the chalk and lunch for every participant.

Explore hand building techniques and a variety of glaze applications inspired by works of art from all over the world!

Ignite imagination by creating in mixed media! Students will use painting, drawing, collage and printmaking to create one-of-a-kind works of art inspired by visits to the galleries.

Step into the world of comic and zine creations! Enhance your skills in line work, composition, and storytelling, then apply these techniques to your own creations.

Participants will gather ideas in the galleries, then return to the studio classrooms to develop drawing and portraiture skills in a variety of styles.

Nurture a childs creativity! Young children explore art concepts by working with paint, collage, and clay.

Join us once a month for open mic performances, drinks, and snacks! Whether youre coming to perform writing or music, or just there for the show, youre guaranteed to have a great time.

Come to classroom 1 every other Thursday to make art with likeminded teens. Whether you want to work on your own project or try something new, this place is for you.
