In this two-session workshop taught by artist Sophie Grant, experiment with painting and push the boundaries of the medium.

This six-week program for preschoolers and their families explores how music and art playfully intertwine. Each class will embark on a thematic musical tour of the Jewish Museum’s galleries in partnership with The Diller-Quaile School of Music followed by an art-making experience. Each class is led by both a museum and a music educator incorporating song, movement, and hands-on activities.

Join us for a conversation between Dr. Atina Grossmann, Professor of History in the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences at the Cooper Union and Dr. Joseph Sassoon, Professor of History and Politics at Georgetown University as they discuss his most recent book, The Sassoons: The Great Global Merchants and the Making of an Empire.

Join as a member at the Friend level or above to attend a private, behind-the-scenes lecture on The Sassoons with Claudia Nahson, Morris and Eva Feld Senior Curator.

Participants in the ASL community are invited to explore more of the exhibition The Sassoons through a guided tour led by Joyce Hom.
