Calling all Hardy and Bishop School Families! Explore the Cyrus Dallin Art Museum and discover the art and life of Arlington’s celebrated sculptor! This fun, hands-on program will be offered to the Hardy School on Sunday, April 19 and the Bishop School on Sunday, May 3 from 12-4 pm. The Museum will be open exclusively to families, teachers, and administrators for free tours, art hunts, and art making activities. This fun, interactive program was developed in partnership with Arlington Public Schools to supplement the K-5 curriculum. Children will learn how to observe, think, and talk about Cyrus Dallin’s sculptures and use their observations to discover fascinating details about Dallin’s extraordinary life, values, and his commitment to Arlington. This program will be offered to additional Arlington elementary schools in subsequent years.

All participating ArtVenture families will receive a Brookline Bank Family Membership to the Dallin Museum (good for one year) and a Museum activity book. Prizes will be given to children who complete all (or part) of the art hunt. Tours will take place every half hour starting at noon. For more info visit www.dallin.org or contact the museum at hleavell@dallin.org or 781-641-0747.

This program is made possible with the support of Brookline Bank and the Arlington Cultural Council, a local agency which is supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency.
