CraftKids asks students to explore the interplay between form and function in craft through carefully looking at the Museum’s collection and temporary exhibitions. Through a 60-minute session, students are introduced to craft by
considering the role it plays in their daily lives. Tours are inquiry- and discussion-based, guiding students as they learn to look at objects in new and meaningful ways. Thematic tours focus on materials, process, identity in craft, positive and negative space, and more.
Reservations are required a minimum of two weeks in advance. Please provide the requested date and time, contact name, contact information, as well as the number and grade level of students.

ll peonies grown in the world have their beginnings in China where the large, brilliantly colored blooms inspired poets to draw associations with aristocratic splendor, opulence, robust sensuality and voluptuous women. During May, mothers and women are celebrated and the peony reigns. Tree and herbaceous peonies are for sale and growers give lectures on their history and cultivation. On May 27th, visitors are encouraged to “Bring Three (peonies) and Get in Free”, resulting in the largest, informal show of peonies ever. Free with Garden admission
