#recreate art

Looking to get creative while staying home? Try recreating a work of art from our collection with materials from around the house. Our Coordinator of Early Childhood School Programs and Museum Educator Lindsey Bloom outdid herself with these recreations.

When you see something that you feel on a soul level and have to recreate it as a joke

My mom's an art teacher and she's doing the "recreate a famous painting" thing with her students while they're stuck at home and absolutely nailed it, I'm screaming at how good these are
