Vivid Creations Art Workshop

Create, make art, and be inspired by the Arboretum’s sculptural exhibition, Vivid Creatures.

This summer, children and families can create their own works of art inspired by the large-scale sculptures in the Arboretum’s current exhibition, Vivid Creatures.

Materials and art mediums will change monthly, drawing inspiration from different sculptures in the exhibition—from the wide, feathery wings of Cadence, the sandhill crane, to the shimmering, colorful shell of Spectra, the brittle button snail.

The Vivid Creations Art Workshop is open on weekends from June 13, through September 6, and on Monday, September 7, 2026 (Labor Day).

This drop-in program is included with Arboretum general admission.

The Vivid Creations Art Workshop will take place in the Children’s Garden on the Arboretum’s East Side.

Ages: Recommended for ages 2 and up
