Fun with Author Dan Rau & The Bookmobile!
Starting with cave paintings and hieroglyphics, humans have used both art and writing to tell stories. In this fun, interactive family activity, children's author and illustrator Dana Rau will guide you through how to make a Zine, a DIY magazine that is part personal, part collaboration, part poetry, part art, and all cool! Every participant will leave with their very own Zine to keep the creativity going. 

Family Days now run in tandem with Teen Art Studio! See our website for more details.

AMP's Family Days are supported by the generosity of The Comis Foundation and Torrington Bank.
