Tiny Art Show 2022
Morrison’s First Ever…
Create your own tiny masterpiece with a tiny art kit! Inside you’ll find a 4”x4” canvas, acrylic paints, and a brush. Feel free to use other mediums or materials, but make sure to keep your art tiny! Any theme or subject can be explored; we just ask that all submissions are family-friendly. This free activity is open to EVERYONE. No matter the skill level, creating art is great for the mind and soul!

The Loft’s goal is to promote Morrison both as a regional arts’ destination by providing a venue for local artists to create, promote and sell original art and to foster arts’ education through lessons and programs. Stop in and check out artwork from local artists or browse selections on their webpage. Open Thursday 10-2, Friday 10-4, and Saturday 10-4.
- Located on the banks of the Mississippi, the Figge Art Museum works to bring art and people together through education, collections, exhibitions, and preservation. Just a 45 minutes drive from Morrison, it’s a lovely way to spend an afternoon. Prefer to stay home, browse their virtual collections here.
