Class Type: Mailed Art Kits

Modeled after the My Very First Art Class on-site program, this at-home experience is designed to introduce young children (ages 2–4) and their favorite grown-ups to art, artworks from the museum, and verbal and visual literacy through creative play and discovery.   

Each kit embodies a different theme and will roll out monthly. The activities include a creative warm-up, close looking with a work of art from the CMA’s collection, an art-making activity, and a storybook you can read together at home.  

Note, all activities are designed to be completed with an adult and child (ages 2–4) together. The art kits do not include direct instruction from CMA staff.  

Upcoming 2021 themes include the following:
