Inspired by artist Mark Dion’s immersive installation, The South Florida Wildlife Rescue Unit, 3-5 year-olds and their caregivers will explore how art can tell stories about real places, animals, and the environmental challenges they face. Through lively storytelling, group conversation, and hands-on artmaking, young visitors will step into the role of Everglades Rescue Rangers—observing wildlife, protecting fragile habitats, and caring for Florida’s one-of-a-kind ecosystem.
Enjoy a nature-themed picture book reading, make our own wildlife Collages, and imagine what it’s like to protect Florida’s amazing ecosystem.
Organization and Support
PAMM Art Storytime is made possible by support from The Israel, Rose, Henry & Robert Wiener Charitable Foundation, The Edward C. Fogg, III and Lisbeth A. Fogg Charitable Trust, 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.
