The Opening of the Lindemann Creativity Center at The Bass Museum

The Sunday drizzle (chia pet alert) didn't keep us or anyone else away from the grand opening of the Lindemann Family Creativity Center at Bass Museum of Art in Miami Beach, where children ages 6 to 12 -- and their parents -- can enjoy art classes and workshops. After the ribbon cutting, the children retreated to a room with state-of-the-art craft tables that were height-adjustable and designed to fold up when not in use, Murphy Bed-style. There, both genders made colorful pipe-cleaner fantasy wands as a few of the older girls, one wearing a lacey fascinator, ran around with clipboards, looking very responsible. (Huffington Post)
