PATTERNS

Every day we embrace patterns—on our clothes, in music, even our city streets are laid out in patterns. MOWA Education Fellow Isabel Castro will guide us in thinking about our connection to patterns and how we might create patterns of our own. We’ll combine our individual designs into one collective arrangement. We’ll also welcome back goldendoodle therapy dog, Maggie!

POST OFFICE ART

During the 1930s and 1940s, 35 murals were commissioned for post offices around Wisconsin, some of which are no longer available for public viewing. This month we’ll take a closer look at Ruth Grotenroth’s Unloading a River Barge (1943) which was commissioned for the Hudson Post Office and then create art inspired by it.
