Lawrence, KS – The Spencer Museum of Art will conclude KU’s 2011 Homecoming weekend in style with a Family Fun Day from 1-3 PM on Sunday, October 2. Presented in conjunction with the exhibition Crafting Continuities, the free event will feature a variety of hands-on art activities and demonstrations by local artists.

“Families will be able to experience a wide array of creative processes and explore various materials and techniques including glass making, metalworking, fiber arts, throw pottery and more,” says Scott Barber, SMA Coordinator of Youth & Family Outreach. “The great thing is they get to make those connections together, and they get to do so in the context of original works of art from our amazing collections.”
