Social Saturday: SNOW DAY
Join the Des Moines Art Center’s inaugural Social Saturday event and celebrate all things comfy and cozy with a SNOW DAY theme! Come in out of the cold as we warm up with hot chocolate in the Art Center Café, create snowmen prints in the Art School studios, enjoy a film screening in the auditorium, take a free guided tour in the galleries, peruse the current exhibitions, and more.
Guests are invited to wear their coziest clothes, bundle up for sweater weather, and escape into joy and warmth at the Art Center.
