Join the SDMA Teen Council and Museum educators for a hands-on art workshop inspired by the designs of Persian ceramics from the Museum’s collection. In this drop-in activity, participants will create their own painted tiles using paint pens while exploring the geometric and vegetal motifs found in 13th-century Persian pottery.
The SDMA Teen Council offers high school students the opportunity to engage collaboratively with Museum staff and peers, contributing their voices to developing and implementing community-based art programs.
This event is open to all ages and skill levels. No reservation is required. All materials are provided.
