Thursday Evening Fun Series
Thursdays, July 11 – August 22
5 – 7 p.m.
Location: on the back side of the terrace and the lawn adjacent to terrace.

This family-friendly series is all about looking closely at art, telling the story it invites, making art on the terrace, listening to music, and creating group dances on the lawn with Moving Arts Exchange. The Runaway Cafe will be open to offer picnic-friendly meals, SoCo ice cream, popsicles and more to round out the evening.

Investigate Norman Rockwell’s work through your body and motion in space and time. Visual artists are inspired by dance, and dancers have a kinetic response to visual art. Enjoy an opportunity to embody Rockwell’s images through the exploration of dance.

Free with Museum Admission and free for kids 18 and under.

Land Acknowledgement

It is with gratitude and humility that we acknowledge that we are learning, speaking and gathering on the ancestral homelands of the Mohican people, who are the indigenous peoples of this land on which the Norman Rockwell Museum was built. Despite tremendous hardship in being forced from here, today their community resides in Wisconsin and is known as the Stockbridge-Munsee Community. We pay honor and respect to their ancestors past and present as we commit to building a more inclusive and equitable space for all.
