NOMA and the New Orleans Public Library have partnered to bring together art and early literacy activities for this community program designed for children ages 2 – 5 and their caregivers. Inspired by NOMA’s Mini Masters, an arts-integration program that provides visual arts experiences and museum interaction for preschool students, participants of Mini Masters at the Library will engage in hands-on art-making activities and develop the early literacy skills needed to become ready to read.
