In Partnership with New Orleans Museum of Art

Children take their cues from the grown-ups around them. At this age, they become aware of feelings and ideas through mimicry. Learn how you can positively impact the emotional understanding of your child’s feelings using imitation games to model and express all the ways she might feel.

*Access the NOMA Besthoff Sculpture Garden Pavilion via the gate on Enrique Alférez Drive, across from Café NOMA.

This free 6-part workshop series is made possible by The Helis Foundation. Our workshops provide engaging arts-based activities designed to instruct caregivers on how to use the arts at home to promote early learning. Lessons are conducted by certified Louisiana Wolf Trap Teaching Artists, who have expertly crafted multi-sensory experiences that foster children’s natural curiosity for learning. After each workshop, children and their caregivers can download our digital Connection Cards for tips on how workshop activities can be continued at home.
