Art Grows Here!

On Saturday, March 21, 2026, join us for Art Grows Here, a relaxed, creative morning designed especially for families and young artists to discover how art begins with the world around us – our homes, our land, and the stories we carry with us. Inspired by the rhythms of farm and prairie life, this hands-on event invites children to explore, make, and imagine through art activities rooted in nature and everyday experience.

Kids can create farm-themed artwork, take part in a playful scavenger hunt through the galleries, plant seeds to take home and nurture, and gather for a lunch together. It’s a welcoming atmosphere where curiosity leads and creativity grows.

Farm and prairie inspired attire is encouraged.

(Children aged 2 and under are free, and they must be registered in advance. After registering other guests, please call the Art Center at 712-279-6272 and add children 2 or under.)
