Nicolas Party: Copper & Dust runs until the end of August, and includes a site-specific pastel mural alongside paintings of dinosaurs, portraits, still lifes and nature. Kids are fascinated by the size and vibrancy of his work! Our permanent collection also has pull-out drawers and cases full of miniature objects and animals that make exploration fun and child-friendly.
