How do the museum preserve Chinese paintings that have creases and tears? In this hands-on workshop, children ages 6–11 will practice repairing artwork using reinforcement strips, a traditional mending technique. Get inspired by touring the Chinese art galleries, make art, and apply reinforcement strips so the artwork can safely make the journey home.
