Family Day: Flower Power

  • Sunday, June 9
  • 10:30 AM - 2:00 PM MT
  • 217 JOHNSON STREET, SANTA FE, NM

Join us in celebrating the natural beauty of the flowers all around us!

    “…in a way—nobody sees a flower—really—it is so small—we haven’t time—and to see takes time like to have a friend takes time.” – Georgia O’Keeffe 

In honor of the summer season, join us in exploring the power of florals! Why did flowers captivate Georgia O’Keeffe so much? What makes them so special? Is it their color, their shape, or the meaning we give them? Through a variety of hands-on artmaking, creative activities with the Santa Fe Children’s Museum, and story time with the Santa Fe Public Library, celebrate the natural beauty of the flowers all 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 Fe Children’s Museum and Santa Fe Public Libraries.
