Drop-In Workshops for Families: Costume Design Illustration
Join us for a costume design illustration workshop.
The Education team invites families to join museum educators every month to be inspired by the museum’s exhibitions and screenings to learn, create, and have fun!
Our March Family Drop-In Workshops are inspired by the book Dressing Up the Stars: The Story of Movie Costume Designer Edith Head written by Jeanne Walker Harvey. Learn about how costumes play an important role in bringing us into the worlds and stories told through movies and create your own costume design illustration!
Join us anytime from 12:30pm to 2:30pm in the Shirley Temple Education Studio on the museum’s Lower Level.
Check back soon for upcoming workshop themes!
If you have any questions, or need assistance planning your visit, please email museumeducation@oscars.org.
