About 'Making Room'
The Bronx Museum is not just a place where people can see great art, it is also a site where people of all ages can engage in creative making. The exhibition Making Room: Museum as Space for Self-Expression showcases this special dynamic by featuring artworks from our permanent collection hung alongside artworks by participants in our education programs.
About Teen Summer
Teen Summer is a four-week paid internship for high school students (age 14-19) creating a collaborative exploration of art, community, and the role of museums in our current time. Students also reflect on their personal relationships to arts and culture, which culminates in a media and art exhibition.
About Lifelong Studio
Lifelong Studio is a series of sequential, hands-on artmaking workshops at The Bronx Museum for adults ages 55 and over. Each 8-week program is free of charge and culminates in an artmaking project and final celebration.
