Kids are invited to craft their own American story during this special workshop led by illustrator Jeanine Murch in celebration of the nation’s 250th anniversary.

Inspired by the My America: An Illustrated Experience exhibition, this interactive workshop invites kids to explore what America means to them. Through guided prompts and creative activities, children will write and illustrate their own “My America” story, sharing their personal experiences, traditions, heroes, and hopes for the future.

Participants will receive a special booklet to design and complete during the session, which they’ll then take home as their very own published keepsake.

Perfect for young storytellers and artists, this hands-on program encourages creativity and self-expression in a fun, supportive environment.
