Part 1

You’ll explore the museum on a treasure hunt using a few simple prompts.
Examples include:
• Find a piece that evokes a new emotion.
• Find something that reminds you of a moment you haven’t named yet.

Participants get about 90 minutes to explore the art and the museum.
Afterward, we walk to the Central Library to talk through what you discovered and turn those threads into early story work.

Part 2

Date selected during Part 1.
We meet again about two weeks later for a two-hour follow-up session to share work, refine ideas, and shape the final piece together.
