Create Playdate

Details

Want to make art inspired by your favorite Phoenix Art Museum works on view? Create Playdate offers young artists a hands-on maker experience during their visit through our mobile, in-gallery art cart. Each week's Create Playdate offers a fresh and fun theme featuring an artwork on view, an art making activity to do at the Museum, and kids' projects to extend the fun at home! Charles Gaines: Numbers and Trees (Arizona Series) debuts the complete series of Gaines' most recent body of work, Numbers and Trees: Arizona Trees 1, 2023, a demonstrate of his approach to transforming images into a distinct visual language. Numbers and Trees: Arizona Trees 1 uses photography, math, and numeric systems to create soft, numbered marks in ink on a grid, with each drawing built upon the calculations of the last. Using graph paper and colored pencils, visitors will create their own images using a grid system and explore the relationship between systems and art. Create Playdate included in general admission.
