Bring your budding artists to The Aldrich for Story Time, in collaboration with the Ridgefield Library! Together, we will explore the work of artist Rachelle Dang. Dang’s artwork on view in A Garden of Promise and Dissent, deals with themes of botanical history. We will read the story Dear Little One by Nina Laden, illustrated by Melissa Castrillon. Then, we will head to the studio to sculpt our own tiny seed pods like the ones in Rachelle Dang’s artwork!
