Resiliency@CAM: Community Day

March 15 at 10:00 am UTC-5

Join us for CAM Community Day! Explore how the arts can support resiliency in children, families, and our broader community through interactive experiences for all ages. All programs and exhibitions are FREE from 10:00am to 5pm.

In collaboration with the New Hanover County Resiliency Task Force and other local organizations, the museum will offer a wide variety of art projects, performances, and interactive collaborations designed to inspire and strengthen individuals and families. Visit community tables to learn about valuable local resources and discover the many ways organizations are working to support well-being in our region.

Cameron Art Museum partners with organizations across an eight-county region to provide inclusive programming for all. Activities are designed for all ages and abilities—everyone is welcome!

Activities Include:

10-11 am – Super Jane Smith. Author and illustrator Jane Smith will read “Teddy’s Bear Takes a Tumble” and lead an activity. Books will be available for purchase and signing by the author.

11-11:30 – Turning the Wheel: A Turning the Wheel Creative Play Pop-Up is a time for the community to come together in play. We gather in a circle and explore spontaneous movement through non-elimination games played by the whole group, in small groups, and with partners. People of all ages and abilities can follow the easy cues given by the TTW facilitators, encouraging everyone to engage and have fun with live music accompaniment. Our goal is to enjoy ourselves, communicate through our movements, and create joy together. 

10 am – 5 pm – Novant Health: Join us at a Resource table featuring a coloring activity for children. The activity includes coloring pages, a coloring fan, and crayons, along with a table activity offering NH items as prizes.

12 pm-1 pm -DREAMS Center for Arts Education (Apprentices): A gouache painting activity led by DREAMS apprentices.

1-2 pm – Veterans Creative Arts Program: We will provide an art activity that encourages participants to share and tell their stories through writing and mixed media artwork.

…and more!
