Shel Silverstein, famous children's book author and illustrator, also wrote songs that were recorded by many outlaw country musicians. A Country Music Hall of Fame museum educator leads a FieldTripZoom to explore the exhibit Outlaws and Armadillos: Country’s Roaring ’70s.

Participants will listen to poems from Silverstein’s collection A Light in the Attic. Inspired by his whimsical writing, draw an illustration along with visual artist Britt McDermott and learn to write a Silverstein-style poem. Guardian is required to be present for children under thirteen.
