ART & MUSEUMS
AMARANTHINE MUSEUM
Treasure Hunt
The Amaranthine Museum has created an educational program to enhance the experience of visitors touring the 200 piece Labyrinth. Hidden treasures have been borrowed from selected paintings within the Labyrinth and embedded within a “Treasure Hunt”, inviting the museum visitors to investigate each painting in detail in search of the image. The player seeks the images then, by reading the detailed description of each piece from the guided tour, matches it with its correct title. Those successfully completing the “Hunt” will receive a prize. The end result has met with great enthusiasm as it deepens the visitors experience and lends a keen understanding into the artwork.
Sundays, Oct 7, 14, 16, 21 & 28, 12pm – 2pm
Amaranthine Museum – 2010 Clipper Park Road
No advance reservations required.
