This online exhibit features artwork made by students from our local schools. These students worked with Museum educators to explore a current exhibition, Rungius Sesquicentennial — Rungius Reunited & Rarely Seen Rungius. This year, area summer camp youth are helping us celebrate the 150th birthday of the father of wildlife art, Carl Rungius, by learning about his life and creating their own unique watercolor or acrylic versions of his iconic artwork. While at the Museum, campers also participate in an interactive skit about Rungius’ climb to artistic fame, followed by an overview of color theory, and an in-gallery animal drawing tutorial.
