Art + Community Service at the DMA

Join us at the Dallas Museum of Art for professional artist-led workshops for the whole family! There are sessions for SLANT 45 participants on Saturdays (see schedule below) which will allow kids to complete the reflective art component of the program in a variety of mediums - under the direction of local artists Lesli Robertson, Will Richey, and Jill Foley. Reflective art is required of all participants, so come out the DMA and let professional artists help your team create something to be proud of! Participants will also receive FREE admission to the museum.

There will also be special sessions for adults at the immensely popular Late Nights at the DMA. Visitors will be given the chance to create "Secret Service" postcards to highlight the unseen acts of kindness they've done or seen others do to better their community, with the help of artists like Sara Cardona, David Herman, Jr., Adriana Martinez and Ann Marie Newman.

The community service-related art will then be shared with all of North Texas as it tours alongside the SLANT 45 art exhibit (including pieces like these) from D/FW Airport to NorthPark Center to the Fort Worth Museum of Science and History and even a stint at the State Capitol. Mark your calendars with the dates below - we'll see you at the DMA!
