The DMA has gone full virtual with summer camps this year as well. Little ones can practice exploring art, playing games, and making projects from the comfort of their own home. Campers will join in daily virtual camp sessions via laptop or tablet and an included art kit will have all the supplies needed to make masterpieces at home.

In addition to offering summer camps, the DMA is partnering with the Dallas Public Library to offer free youth art kits inspired by the Museum’s My|Gration exhibition, which traces the migration of people, objects, and ideas in art across times and cultures. Each kit contains bilingual activity instructions, art supplies, and a link to an introductory video and can be reserved on the DMA website.

To keep up-to-date with the DMA, visit their Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube channel, or website.
