Young Learner Program: Read for the Record
About The Event
Join the NMWA for bilingual story time and artmaking at Jumpstart’s 13th annual Read for the Record!
Children ages 3â6 and their guardians will hear, in English and in Spanish, the 2018 Read for the Record selection, Maybe Something Beautiful: How Art Transformed a Neighborhood (QuizĂĄs algo hermoso: CĂłmo el arte transformĂł un barrio), written by F. Isabel Campoy and Theresa Howell and illustrated by Rafael LĂłpez.
Participants then learn how BetsabeĂ© Romero, Mexico City-based sculptor, transformed the museumâs neighborhood with sculptures of carved and painted tires. Inspired by the story and sculptures, participants will create an original work of art to brighten their home or the life of someone in their community!
