Join the NMA on the first Thursday of each month for an evening of live music and refreshments, hosted by KTHX Radio and Great Basin Brewing Company. Musical guests and additional sponsors change each month. This program is sponsored through the generosity of KTHX Radio and Great Basin Brewing Company. Sunday Family Program is a free program offered in the NMA's galleries and E. L. Cord Museum School two weekends per month. Together adults and children will participate in tours, sketching exercises and gallery games to discover new meanings in the featured exhibitions.
Families then participate in a hands-on workshop.
Early arrival is recommended. After the tour, families will create wood maquettes based on the exhibit. Today, participants will assemble their own quirky collages from everyday packaging. Participants will select found objects to produce small-scale environments. Families will experiment with both texture and geometry to create their own illusionistic works of art.
