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.
Join staff and volunteers for a fun and informative tour of the Magness property. You'll learn the history of Magness, some tree identification, as well as why sustainable forestry is so important. No reservations are necessary. They go rain or shine. Wear comfortable shoes and meet in the parking lot.

From the earliest days of Chicano theatre comes this satire of California farm-worker family life, in which the drunken father’s a sonavaviche and the long-suffering mother’s a saint. Of their four children, Mingo’s a sell-out, Joaquin a rebellious pachuco, and Lupe a whining teenager who envisions pregnancy as her only salvation. And the eldest? Just an enormous head who believes he’s Pancho Villa. To this hilariously disintegrating household, Mingo announces his intention to move his family out of the barrio and into the American dream. But will a seductive nostalgia for Mexico’s revolutionary past overwhelm his efforts? It’s the Chicano dilemma: Are we Mexican or American?
Once upon a time, a Baker and his Wife journey into the woods on a quest to lift a witch's curse. On the way they cross paths with Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel, Cinderella, and a menagerie of other fairy tale characters to reveal what happens after "happily ever after."

Teddy's life has lost all meaning, and his wife has lost all patience. But when Arthur (equal parts Liberace, Casanova and George Plimpton, with a soupçon of Michael Jackson) arrives in the middle of the night, Teddy might just give everything to return to his life of boredom. A feel-good, heartfelt, life-affirming production from Third Rail. No, seriously.
Neil Simon's comedic tribute to vaudeville centers around the feuding legendary act known as Lewis and Clark. Having not spoken to one another for 11 years (since Al Lewis walked out on Willie Clark after a successful 43 year career), the two are now being asked to reunite and perform their most famous sketch for a TV special on the history of comedy.
Prices ranges from $12 (student previews) to $28 (adult Friday/Saturday evenings.

Museum of Contemporary Craft presents Mandy Greer & Darrell Morris - Museum of Contemporary Craft
Museum of Contemporary Craft proudly presents two large-scale exhibitions merging tradition and concept: Mandy Greer: Dare alla Luce, a room-sized installation, and the nearly life-sized embroidery works of Darrel Morris: The Large Works 1999-2008.
Museum of Contemporary Craft features for the first time the 17 ceramic vessels granted to the Museum by internationally recognized artist Toshiko Takaezu. Former faculty member at Princeton University, Takaezu is widely considered the first person to close – or nearly close – a ceramic vessel. She combines technical mastery with spontaneous painterly glazes that have influenced decades of ceramists worldwide.
