Gather together with fellow sewers, crocheters, knitters, and quilters for a monthly Sip & Stitch at the Allentown Art Museum. Enjoy coffee, crafting, and conversation with other creatives as you make.

Inspired by an 1814 color chart book, this exhibition presents a range of artworks in which science and art intersect and color predominates. Featuring paintings, works on paper, and objects by Georgia O’Keeffe, Sonia Delaunay-Terk, Paul Klee, Josef Albers, and more.

Come to the Allentown Art Museum for a night of exploring the galleries and participating in art-making activities! As always, admission is FREE and open to all ages and abilities.

Sensory Saturdays occur on the second weekend of every month. This hour-long quiet time is designed to offer accessible art experiences for individuals with unique needs and abilities. On Sensory Saturdays we open the Museum early, at 10 a.m., and modify our galleries to make exploration easier for visitors who benefit from reduced sensory input. Modifications including dimming lights, muting audio and video displays, and adding access to calm spaces.
