Family Day: Branching Out!

  • Sunday, April 14
  • 10:30 AM - 2:30 PM MT
  • 217 JOHNSON STREET, SANTA FE, NM

Join us to explore beauty in the natural world around us!

Trees withstand the test of time. Throughout all seasons – fall, winter, spring, summer – they remain rooted in place. As their branches reach for the light, their roots stay firmly planted no matter what. Georgia O’Keeffe strongly believed there was beauty in this, which is why she loved to paint trees so much.  Join us to celebrate the beauty of the natural world around us!

The Georgia O’Keeffe Museum is proud to offer Family Day! Occurring on the second Sunday of every month, this event aims to bring the community together through hands-on art-making and storytelling, as well as encouraging kids and families to take a new approach in looking at and interacting with art. This Family Day is offered in partnership with the Santa Santa Fe Public Libraries.

An amorphous blob of flowing blue, green, and red paint occupies the center of the paper. Patches of yellow dot the image. The form resembles a dark, colorful cloud, and contrasts with the plain white paper framing it.

Large pinkish/orange shell that dominates most of the canvas, with a much smaller shell beside it on the lower left. Both are oval in shape and open to their undersides, exposing the dark glossy pink of the inside of a shell. They are nestled on a white cloth or tissue paper that has folds suggesting a depth, as if the objects are in a box. The larger shell is chipped on it's upper left tip.
