Don’t Feed the Art: Woodmere’s Animal Menagerie
About the Exhibition
Artists have been inspired by the beauty of animals since the beginning of recorded history. Don’t Feed the Art! offers children and adults many ways to enjoy animals through the eyes of artists. The children's workbook that accompanies the exhibition includes hands-on art and writing activities to inspire creative expression. Click here to download a digital version of the workbook. We hope you enjoy this celebration of our animal friends, from tiny kingfisher birds to a giant sperm whale. All the art on view comes from Woodmere’s collection.
This exhibition is supported by AddVal Inc. and Henry & Liz Harris.
