Bring the whole family to Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM) for a hands-on day of art and imagination! Inspired by the work of Miami-based artist T. Elliott Mansa, you’ll explore how everyday materials can be transformed into meaningful works of art.

Mansa’s dynamic sculptures, paintings, and assemblages combine found objects, textures, and symbols to tell stories that celebrate culture, honor memory, and spark reflection.

Using his creative approach as inspiration, families can build their own sculptural assemblages that capture personal memories or shared moments. With a mix of fun, accessible materials, everyone—from kids to grown-ups—can play, create, and discover how art connects us to our stories and each other.

Organization and Support

PAMM Free Second Saturdays are made possible by presenting sponsorship support from Publix Super Market Charities, The Edward C. Fogg, III and Lisbeth A. Fogg Charitable Trust, the Miami Downtown Development Authority, and by endowed funds granted by the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation and Heckscher Foundation for Children to underwrite the museum’s broad portfolio of education programs. Together with leadership support from Miami-Dade County, these funders enable the museum to transform the lives of young people in our community through our art education programs.
