Stop by the CAC’s Creativity Center on July 12 for an indoor block party the whole family is sure to enjoy! Join us as we celebrate community focused artwork inspired by our Ohio Now exhibition and create alongside some of our favorite local artists!
- Design a felt banner with artist Garrett Goben in using shapes and colors found in his Soft Bones installation.
- Build a tiny Cincy out of mix materials and paper mache with Artist in Residence, Karen Boyhen. Use our sixth floor city skyline view of downtown as inspiration for what to create! Special guest artist, Courttney Cooper from Visionaries and Voices will join us as well. Learn about his elaborate city drawings of our city while building your own Cincinnati.
- Create a love letter collage to Mother Earth with artist Julia Orquera Bianco and think about the community parks, forests and gardens that make our city such a wonderful place.
- Join us for a family-friendly artist talk at noon with Kateri Sparrow, the artist behind the newest Creativity Center installation, Scrap Garden. Learn about Sparrow’s work and create a mini scrap garden sculpture of your own.
On top of the many art making activities, we’ll have skaters from Skate Nation rolling around the 6th floor. The festival runs from 11am-2pm, don’t miss out on all the fun!
Family Festivals are free with CAC Admission. Children 18 and under receive free admission.
