About

Guests are invited to create a personalized pocket-sized silhouette inspired by the works of Letitia Huckaby, on view in Figurative Histories. While learning about the history of silhouettes as a form of portraiture, visitors will make a one-of-a-kind keepsake and develop a written story to shed light on their unique shadow portrait. All supplies are included; children under 12 years old require adult supervision.
