Celebrate Father’s Day, Sunday, June 21, with family at Shelburne Museum. Art activities and events will be ongoing from noon to 4 p.m. There will be miniature golf, a 3D printer demo, a scavenger hunt and much more. Discover, learn and grow at Shelburne Museum.
Museum Director Tom Denenberg said, “The worlds of Walter Wick capture the imagination. Our wonderful exhibition serves as a launching-pad for discussions about perception and illusion, and inspires us all to explore the world and look on it with new insight. We look forward to letting the magic out of the gallery for a day dedicated not only to fathers, but to art and imagination.”
