Celebrate Horace Pippin
On Sunday, kids can celebrate artist Horace Pippin during a read-aloud workshop, art activity, and book signing at the Brandywine River Museum.
Local author Jen Bryant will read her new picture book illustrated by Melissa Sweet, A Splash of Red: The Life and Art of Horace Pippin. After the reading check out the artist's paintings in the museum and kids can channel their inner Pippin making pictures with the color red. Bryant will also sign copies of the book from noon to 1 p.m. and hold a discussion from 1 to 2.
