With its color, daring and explosive fun, the circus has always been a theme that intrigues and inspires artists. In Under The Big top, NCMA's MiniArt Museum for Children presents reproductions of circus art by Seurat, Leger, Prendergast, Toulouse-Lautrec, Picasso, Chagall and others, showcasing them alongside displays that will guide the museum's young visitors through explorations of circus skills, endangered animals and memory games using circus characters and activities. The Clown College station includes wall panels that will assist children to master the skills involved in pantomime, juggling and creating a clownish costume. Roomboxes will include miniature circus animals; wall titles assist visitors in identifying which are endangered.
