Create your very own works of art and experience new ways to get ready to read. A series of four early learning programs brought to you by the New Orleans Museum of Art. Reservations required.
Week 3 Topic: Elements of Art - Awareness of shape, color, line, space, texture, form and value.
The New Orleans Museum of Art and the New Orleans Public Library have partnered to bring together art and early literacy activities for this community program designed for children ages 2 - 5 and their caregivers. Inspired by NOMA's Mini Masters, an arts-integrated program that provides visual arts experiences and museum interaction for preschool students, participants of Mini Masters at the Library will engage in hands-on art making activities and develop the early literacy skills needed to become ready to read. Picture books will be provided by NOPL.
Mini Masters is supported by The City of New Orleans, First Horizon, Janice Parmelee and Bill Hammack, Sara and David Kelso, Karen and Henry Coaxum, and The Patrick F. Taylor Foundation.

Norman Mayer Library is named for New Orleans businessman and one of the original Tulane College of Commerce and Business guarantors, Norman Mayer. After his passing, his wife donated money to the New Orleans Public Library to have the Library opened. Doors opened in 1949, and the Library has been serving the Gentilly area since.
