LACMA FEAST - just for kids!
Explore 17th-century European gold and porcelain dinnerware, wonder who would have used these objects, and engage in scenes featuring these characters. Imagine eating a sumptuous feast filled with exotic foods from a Dutch oil painting. Who would be at the table? What would they say to each other? Act out these imaginary scenes with Chelsea Hogan, museum educator and founder of MuseumProv, and Maite before heading to the ArtBites Pop-up Kitchen (a 3-minute drive from the museum) to prepare and eat a real feast!
Menu may include:
Carrot Soup
Fancy Gouda Grilled Cheese
Mini Apple Pies
Ages 7 to 12. Class is limited to 6 children and one accompanying adult per child. No drop off.
