Handi-hour returns on Wednesday, December 3rd, just in time to craft some goodies for the gift giving season. This time our inspiration comes from our newest exhibition The Singing and the Silence: Birds in Contemporary Art. Program coordinator Katie Crooks has whipped up another Handi-hour how to video for our featured craft; check it out above for a preview of what we'll be making at the event.

 

Join us in the Luce Foundation Center from 5:30 to 8 p.m. in the Smithsonian American Art Museum as we craft the night away while drinking delicious brews and enjoy live music by The Torches. Admission is $20, cash only at the door. You must be 21 or older to enter.
