Young creatives, University of Washington students, their friends, and family members are cordially invited to participate in small group experiences centered around contemporary art. This opportunity is offered through workshops on artmaking and art history facilitated by the
Henry Art Liaisons. These sessions are designed to complement and converse with the
current exhibitions on view at the Henry, offering relaxed and conversational interactions.
The HALs are a diverse and creative community of undergraduate student interns dedicated to transforming the practices and future prospects of museums. Through the development of community engagement programs, they strive to create meaningful connections among young creatives and their peers, fostering a vibrant and inclusive art community.
Each of these programs is limited to 20 participants. After the first 20 registrations, a waitlist will be created. If you are on the waitlist, you will be notified.
