Bring your built or blood family and get creative in the museum Studio! Create art inspired by our newest exhibition Our Wake Up Call For Freedoms and the contemporary Wide Awakes movement. In the 1860s, the Wide Awakes protected abolitionist leaders and free speech. Today, the Wide Awakes protect community ideals and promote equity and empathy.

Create your own Wide Awake Cloak by upcycling one of your jackets, or using provided fabric.

RSVPs strongly encouraged by visiting this link.

We are grateful to be part of our vibrant community – Let’s use collaboration and creativity to make it even better.
