Virtual Resources
EXPLORE: One of the best resources for learning about and appreciating art is in Raleigh, North Carolina- the NC Museum of Art! It's FREE and it offers many hands-on programs for families, an amazing collection of art to view in the galleries, and miles of greenway for walking or biking. If the weather is nice, take some time to appreciate the various outdoor sculptures at the NCMA.
ART TOGETHER: Make some time to create art together! Art can be made in many different forms. It is so important to encourage your child to use their artistic skills each and every day.
