The Handmade Festival at the Hermitage Museum provides a unique opportunity to connect artmaking with nature, history, and community in a setting that celebrates craft and creativity. The Hermitage, with its historic home, gardens, and art collections, is itself a site where art and environment intersect. This lesson invites children and families to engage in the art of printmaking while also constructing a simple accordion book. Participants will not only create a handmade object but also experience how art connects to the local landscape, using natural elements gathered from the Hermitage gardens.
