FACE FORWARD!

    •     1 p.m.-4 p.m.
    •     Free with Museum admission

What lies behind the face in a portrait? Besides the individual personality are the basics behind every face: the skull, the brain, the eyes, ears, nose, and mouth. Explore all these parts in the Head to Toe exhibition and then examine the same details in Seeing Faces. Try your hand at putting the pieces together to create a portrait of someone who came with you to the Museum. Bring your own camera and create a fun photo portrait. This family activity encourages you to look closely at each other and appreciate the details of what you see.
