The Norton Museum of Art will host the free Art Around the World Community Day on August 16. From 11 a.m. 4 p.m., Art Around the World will be guests’ passport to a day of rediscovery, creativity, and connection for visitors of all ages.

At Art Around the World Community Day, guests can enjoy activities such as:

  • Docent- and museum team-led Spotlight Tours of the collection in both English and Spanish.
  • Creating fun one-of-a-kind artworks with the Norton’s teaching artists in classrooms.

  • Live music and storytelling.

In the Ruth and Carl Shapiro Great Hall, a guitarist and harpist will perform in the afternoon. Children can settle in for a storytelling session and visitors of all ages can step behind the scenes at the Norton through the eyes of a longtime insider who’s been part of the Museum since 1978.
