See our current exhibition An Odyssey: A Narrative of The Fabric Workshop and Museum, celebrating and chronicling 35 years of The Fabric Workshop and Museum's history as well as its renowned Artists-in-Residence program.
 
Families will tour major works in FWM’s collection, including notable works by artists Louise Bourgeois and Faith Ringgold. Families will hear a children’s version of Homer’s The Odyssey and see colorful, narrative printed textiles. Taking inspiration from their own stories, kids will design their own t-shirts using natural indigo dye and French green clay resist paste. All materials are provided in the workshop.
 
FWM Family Programs are designed for children ages 4-10 years of age and their families to explore and learn about contemporary art in new and exciting ways. Family Programs feature hands-on activities designed by FWM educators to spark interest, arouse curiosity, and encourage children and adults to learn about art and culture together.
