Second Saturdays Are for Families

Texture Frenzy

How does the world around us look and feel? That’s texture! Let’s explore texture through frottage, or rubbings of different surfaces. Reveal texture on rice paper, smoosh texture into clay, then join a guided tour to create nature rubbings outside! Ai Weiwei’s Iron Tree Trunk is bumpy, craggy, and rough—what other textures can you find at Laguna Gloria?

Join us on the second Saturday of every month for a fun and creative art-making experience at The Contemporary Austin! The whole family is invited to explore new materials, techniques, and ideas together.
