MCD Library MakeArt: Glen Park Open House

May 18 @ 1:00 PM - 5:00 PM

Glen Park Branch Library

The Glen Park Branch Library’s Open House connects community and library—bringing people into the shared space, collaborating with local organizations, and getting the neighborhood excited about reading.

Join MCD Mobile MakeArt for Memory Pods, sculptures that tell stories that span people, places, and periods of time. Memory Pods is inspired by our current exhibition Indie Folk: New Art and Sounds from the Pacific Northwest and created by local Priyanka Rana

MCD is excited to partner with the Glen Park Branch Library and creatively activate the space! Join us at the new and improved MakeArt van for in-person, exhibition-inspired crafting or take home a FREE MakeArt Kit and museum admission.

FREE event and drop-in activity, all ages are welcome.

Funding for the Museum of Craft and Design’s MakeArt programs is provided by the special interest license plate featuring the image of Snoopy, with permission and support from Peanuts Worldwide (Section 5169 of the Vehicle Code) for the Museum Grant Program under the California Cultural and Historical Endowment. Additional support for MakeArt is made possible in part by the Institute of Museum and Library Services.

Indie Folk: New Art and Sounds from the Pacific Northwest

February 24–June 30, 2024

The Pacific Northwest is home to a unique artistic ecosystem involving craft traditions, pre-industrial cultures, and Indigenous and settler histories. Like folk art, the exhibition features handmade works that are unpretentious, and often blur the line between functionality and aesthetics.
