What if a building could become a piece of jewelry? Inspired by artist-in-residence Rachel Reichert’s exploration of architecture, landscape, and the objects that carry stories of place, families transform familiar buildings into tiny sculptural forms. Using oven bake clay, create a miniature house, barn, doorway, window, or other architectural detail, then turn your creation into a wearable keepsake. Explore how a few simple shapes can capture the feeling of a much bigger place!

Drop in any time: 9:30am - 12 Noon. FREE from families with children ages 3 to 12. This Family Art Day is led by artist educator Katie Baeten and PenArt’s amazing volunteers.

The 2026-27 season  marks 25 years of hands-on making, arts learning, and intergenerational connection through Family Art Days. Join us in celebrating!

Please consider bringing non-perishable food and personal care items with you to Family Art Day to benefit Lakeshore CAP’s Door County Food Pantry.
