Take the family to the Illinois State Museum this coming Saturday, November 12th for a Free Super Saturday Event.

The theme of this one is Paperpalooza.  Here is the information courtesy of the Illinois State Museum website:

Learn about paper and art, explore the On and of Paper exhibition, and work with professional artists to create beautiful works of art.  Highlights of the event include papermaking with Betsy Dollar of the Springfield Art Association, origami art with artist Fumika Brudnak, printmaking, and a collaborative paper sculpture. 
Paperpalooza! is the final program of the Partners on Paper: A Citywide Celebration of the Role of Paper in Art collaborative with the Illinois State Museum, the University of Illinois-Springfield Visual Arts Gallery, Springfield Art Association, Prairie Art Alliance, and Robert Morris Gallery. Each partner organization produced an exhibition exploring the role and importance of paper in art. For more information on this collaborative, click here.

The Super Saturday series is sponsored by the Bank of Springfield.
