This exhibition draws inspiration from an important historical connection. This exhibition isn't just about showcasing our talented young artists; it's about honoring a legacy. Richmond's Child Care Centers, active from 1943-1966, pioneered the integration of arts education into childcare. The Children's Art Studio Richmond proudly carries this torch, fostering creativity in the next generation. This exhibition delves into the history of the original movement sparked during the Homefront era. Visitors can explore the Museum's archived artworks, photographs, and documents that bring this era to life.
Don't miss this chance to witness the vibrant creativity of our young artists, inspired by child-led learning and echoing the pioneering spirit of the Richmond Child Care Centers.
