April showers bring May flowers! Visit the Utah Museum of Fine Arts in Salt Lake City for a free family activity. Admission to the Museum is free every third Saturday of the month, and there is always an art-making activity for the whole family. This Third Saturday, try your hand at creating beautiful paper flowers!

This past Fall, the Museum unveiled new galleries celebrating the Mexican, Central and South American Art. Explore the art on view in these galleries and experience colorful art made by artists from a range of places and times, from ancient Maya to contemporary Mexico. Then join us in the classroom to make colorful traditional paper flowers that can decorate your home or yourself!
