In collaboration with local artists Lily Scalfi, Aareon Boyd, the Peoria Zoo and Wildlife Prairie Park wildlife experts, 10 teams of students grades 9-12 will compete for the ultimate prize and runway reveal!

The Frick will host three Saturday program series focused on the traditions rooted in folk art music, storytelling, and making. These events will offer interdisciplinary access to the American Perspectives exhibition and will provide a place for community members to become welcomed and recognized, and for existing museum-goers to expand their understanding of art outside of the Frick’s long-standing canon of art. On each Saturday during this event series, it is the Frick’s intention to offer engagement through learning, seeing, and doing—giving everyone a chance to approach the art and their reactions to it in ways that aim to enrich their experience.

Music: October 29, 2022 | 11:00 AM – 4:00 PM

Storytelling: November 12, 2022 |11:00 AM – 4:00 PM

Making: December 10, 2022 | 11:00 AM – 4:00 PM
