A children's workshop based on Australian aboriginal art will take place Saturday at the Roanoke Museum of Fine Arts.
The workshop is offered in connection with the museum's current exhibition, "Dreamtime: Australian Aboriginal Art From the Collection of John Kluge."
Roanoke artist Mary Lou Miller will conduct the workshop, which will begin at 10 a.m. with a tour of the exhibition. Participants will learn about the aboriginal view of the world and how it is expressed artistically. After the tour, they will repair to the museum classroom to do paintings of their own based on what they have learned.
Their work will be displayed at Phenix: The Earth Store.
A videotape and aboriginal music also will be part of the two-hour workshop, which is recommended for children aged 7 to 12.
It is free and open to the public. Advance registration is recommended but not required.
