With support from the California Arts Council, MUSEUM OF CHILDREN’S ART will offer a Library Education & Art Program (LEAP) which consists of once-weekly, two-hour, art workshops led by professional Teaching Artists in collaboration with Oakland Public Library staff.
MOCHA annually serves 30,000 Bay Area children, youth and their families, in three core program areas: School Programs, through which professional teaching artists lead sequential art lessons in classrooms and after school programs and provide professional development to teachers; Museum Programs, which include exhibits, open studios, field trips, art parties, art camps and family workshops in our downtown Oakland museum; and Community Programs, through which we bring interactive art making and family programming to libraries, recreation centers, festivals and other public venues.
