Artistic Expression Workshop | Animals for an Autumn Forest
And because the Museum of Hatmaking''''s Educational Service is transformed into a small forest, we''''ll create animals using pine cones, twigs, and other materials. Among them, hares and beavers, old friends of the hat industry...
Materials: Wooden or cardboard pine cone bases, hot glue, leaves, twigs, and various materials.

Artistic Expression Workshop | Painting with Your Feet
This activity encourages participants to exercise their creativity through various drawing and painting activities. But there''''s a twist: they must all be done with their feet!
