#MetKids

Check out the stop-motion films made by 8-12-year-old animators. They made them at the third #MetKids Animation Lab, held April 2-6, 2018! Kids explored the theme of composite, or hybrid, creatures depicted in art from around the world. The animators worked in teams to create short videos that address the question: How would these superheroes solve a problem faced by New Yorkers?
The Metropolitan Museum of Art welcomes all visitors and affirms its commitment to offering programs and services that are accessible to everyone.
