This kit allows you to discover different pieces of art and create different stories or narratives about the art and yourself, using clues found in the painting or sculpture. You will use figurative and descriptive language as you describe things you see in the artwork, think and write as you discover the art, and discover a little about yourself in the process. You will also create unique pieces of art of your own based on your writings and discoveries. We look forward to seeing your beautiful creations. With permission from an adult, you can share your final projects on social media using #MyMuseumKit.
