Chesapeake Arts Center has kicked off a cool new community art project for Anne Arundel County Art Month called Art Exchange Boxes. These provide a wonderful opportunity for community engagement and creativity -- where community members can “take art and leave art” or art supplies for future creativity in an interactive community location where all have access to create and enjoy art. CAC is gearing up to set up several Art Exchange Boxes across West and North Anne Arundel County during Anne Arundel Arts Month (June), so keep a look out for them!

Come celebrate the first look at this exciting community project!

Join us for our newest family program: Stories & Art in the Galleries! Children will enjoy a story and complimentary age-appropriate art activity while viewing CAC's latest gallery exhibit. This month, we're reading "Mae Among the Stars," a beautifully illustrated story about Dr. Mae Jemison, the first African American female astronaut and first African American woman in space. After the story, children will be invited to make their own cardboard rocket sculpture!

This program is free, but space is limited and registration is required. Please register for each child individually. Stories & Art is geared towards children ages 2-5. Caregivers must be present.

Stories & Art in the Galleries is made possible through the generosity of the Community Foundation of Anne Arundel County. Special thanks to the Maryland Heritage Area Authority for their support of Gallery 194.
