Think About It

No one said anything about grown-ups cornering the market on art. In fact, if there's any group of people I know that truly have fun with a variety of artistic mediums, it's those knee-high kiddos. Maybe they need to give us adults a little tutorial on finding our inner art child. Luckily, they can on Art Thinker's Day at the Dallas Contemporary, 2801 Swiss Ave. Now, we didn't actually find any evidence of a sanctioned Art Thinker's Day holiday -- ie., no greeting cards or balloons. And that's good, because if it's Hallmark-free, it's still pure. Like art and youth...right. Anyway, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., kids can collage their own fairy tales, make photograms using light sensitive paper and fun objects, and learn about color theory and painting. They can bring home all that new inspiration and show us fogeys how it's done. Admission is free. Call 214-821-2522.
