Hair Tour for Families

The Hair Tour brought families through the European and American galleries. Pointing to hairdos as a fun point of access, we discussed wigs, hair and dress styles in regards to class, status and history. We also studied the do’s and don’ts of hair styles based on the preferences of professional contemporary stylists. We identified and hair as an abstract form, and did an art making activity in response. Thanks to the stylists at Richard Herrerra About Hair, and Museum Docents Jennifer Hanson and Christine Nelson.
