MakeArt Family Day welcomes visitors of all ages to experience a variety of exhibition-related activities!

In exploration of Robyn Horn: Material Illusions, local green woodcrafter Ian McNemar will demonstrate carving a spoon with knife and axe and also turning a bowl on a handmade, foot-powered lathe. Join in on the experience by safely engraving a wood keychain pendant, and experience the wood of many local tree species to see how they feel, smell, and react to force!

Get hands-on with Iris Eichenberg: When Words Fail. Visitors will create wearable art using polymer clay and found materials, and create a reflective portrait directly onto a personal mirror. Don’t forget to participate in our German word hunt so you can bring an expanded vocabulary back to your haus!

PLUS: Prep for back-to-school with Fjällräven San Francisco, who will be giving away a Kånkenback pack and carving knife kit to one raffle winner. Others will have a chance to win a Fjällräven hat and plenty of stickers. You must be present to win!

All ages welcome—craft your day with the whole family at MCD!
