Scavenger Saturday
Hone your art detective skills and discover something new about contemporary art at Kemper Museum!
Pick up a self-guided activity at the Visitor Services Desk and follow the clues to take an “ART-astic” adventure. Finish the hunt and pick up a take-home, art-making activity kit. Scavenger Saturday activities change monthly and are inspired by artwork in the Museum’s current exhibitions. We'll see you there!

Camp Kemper: Biomorphic Art (Ages 8-12)
Kemper Museum hosts fun three-day art camps with activities inspired by artwork in the Museum. Campers will let their imaginations take over as they discover new and inventive ways of creating contemporary art!
Theme: Biomorphic Art
Explore how artists and architects use nature as inspiration for their artwork! In anticipation of the biomorphic art installation by Paul Henry Ramirez in Kemper Museum’s atrium—and architecture both in Kansas City and around the world—campers will create artwork inspired by organic shapes and forms.
This session is currently at capacity, however registration on our waitlist is still available at Eventbrite:

Please Note: Due to the popularity and high demand for Camp Kemper, and to be able to impact as many families as possible, registration will be limited to one Camp Kemper Summer 2018 session (only) per child.
