Did you know our famous Peacock Room traveled from London to Detroit before it came to the museum? Wondering how it got here safe and sound?
In this workshop, discover how we keep art safe! Kids ages 3–8 will learn from Smithsonian conservators how to safely move and care for large-scale artworks. They will have fun creating and moving their own works of art after a guided tour of the Peacock Room.
This is an in-person event. A virtual version of this family workshop will take place on January 26, 2025.
There are two sessions, each lasting about 1.5 hours. Please register for the session that would work best with your schedule.
When registering, please register for one ticket per person. Based on limited capacity in the gallery and classroom, this will help give us an accurate count.
Notice: The public elevator in the West Building (Freer Gallery of Art) is out of service, so your route to the event location may take a few more minutes than usual. Use the accessible entrance at the corner of Independence Avenue and 12th Street SW, and follow the directions when you arrive. Get more accessibility details.
