Suchitra Mattai uses colorful saris to create intricate tapestries and installations inspired by her cultural identity. After viewing her work, campers will explore color theory as they pour paint on fabric and create strips to weave. We’ll add sculptural elements to our weavings and learn about site-specific art by contributing to a collaborative work.

The Joslyn Art Museum in Omaha, Nebraska, invites the public to explore art spanning eras and cultures. General museum admission is free, made possible by philanthropic support and membership. The collection features European and American painting and sculpture, modern and contemporary works, and art from ancient civilizations, presented across a historic landmark building and newer galleries and garden spaces. Throughout the year the museum hosts special exhibitions, tours, lectures, performances, camps, and family programs that connect visitors with artists and ideas. As a regional hub for learning and creativity, The Joslyn supports students, educators, and lifelong learners through accessible interpretation and community partnerships. When planning a visit, review exhibition and calendar pages for dates, hours, and any separately ticketed or registration-based programs, allow time to enjoy indoor and outdoor spaces, and check for accessibility services or large-print guides as needed. The museum’s mission is to bring people together through meaningful encounters with art.
