Join us at the Ellen Noël Art Museum for a delightful event tailored for art-loving preschoolers aged 3-5 and their grown-ups. At 1:00 PM, we invite you to immerse yourselves in a beautifully illustrated story and a fun art activity. This free event offers an engaging children's story followed by a hands-on art project related to the tale.

Our featured book for this session is I Want My Hat Back by Jon Klassen. Young attendees will be entertained by the charming story of a bear who has lost his hat and wants it back. He wanders around and asks all the animals he encounters whether they've seen it. As soon as the bear starts describing the hat, he remembers where it has seen the hat: on the head of a rabbit. After the story, children will participate in an art activity inspired by the bear’s adventures. It’s a wonderful opportunity to foster a love of reading and creativity in young children while spending quality time together. We look forward to welcoming you and your little artists to the museum for this fun and inspiring event!
