Through the eye of an artist, wonder and inspiration can be found anywhere and everywhere. The Smithsonian is full of art of all kinds and forms—from famous paintings to artifacts that reflect the beauty found in nature. Adventurers explore and discuss artworks and objects in the Smithsonian’s collections, hear from experts, and create their own Smithsonian-inspired pieces that express their new understanding of what makes art—and an artist.
