“Calling all art agents! Featuring art and characters by best-selling author Peter H. Reynolds from his internationally-acclaimed creativity storybook THE DOT, this kid and family-friendly game invites players to get creative and discover lines, shapes, and colors in works of modern art. Players search for and recreate works in the gallery using paper handouts, and can use a digital companion app to record their findings and answer follow-up questions about what they see.
-
Players are given cards with tasks on one side, such as "Find a line that looks loud," and a box on the other side where they draw their findings. Players also have access to an app where they can enter the names of artworks they used and answer follow-up questions about each discovery. At the end of the game, the web app generates a report about the user's day at the museum, which can be downloaded as a PDF file.
