The Academy Museum hosts drop-in workshops that are really animated!

March’s Drop-in Workshops for Families focuses on animation inspired by the screenings of Oscar-winning animated short films and featured animation in the Inventing Worlds and Characters: Animation gallery in the Stories of Cinema exhibition on Level 3.  

Animation is a filmmaking art form where animators begin with many still images that they then assemble to create movement, and eventually those images become a movie. Workshop participants learn about the process, techniques, and tools used in animation and create their own artwork.

Guests can join this drop-in workshop anytime from 12:30pm to 2:30pm in the Shirley Temple Education Studio on the museum’s Lower Level. 

Workshops are free with museum admission (ticket required) and are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Museum admission is free for youth ages 17 and under.
