the moving museum

free community art workshops, each with their own theme!

The pop-ups introduce different forms of site-specific pageantry, parade, puppetry, design, visual art, & worldbuilding

the name “the Moving Museum” comes from program collaborator, Liam (age 7), pictured here.

about the moving museum

This pop-up series seeks to:

  • Facilitate collaboration between people from different geographical areas and develop creative relationships between rural and urban communities. 

  • Provide access and exposure to a variety of creative projects and the skills they involve.

  • Create shared experiences for young people, and the opportunity to work on something larger-than-life.

  • Explore intergenerational, artistic collaboration through authentic and joy-filled encounters.

NEXT:

As part of the “Moving Museum” free art pop-up series, the UnNameable Children’s Project is collaborating with the Children’s Museum of Holyoke on 4 art workshops, free to the public and open to all ages. Each session will be an hour long, led by an artist from the UnNameable Children’s Project. Participants will collaborate with the artists to create a fantastical garden installation out of recycled materials. Each artist will focus on a different component of the garden which will be put together into a whimsical and magical environment that visitors can walk through and performances can take place in. The project will emphasize group collaboration, imagination and celebrating nature in spring!
