Where: The Art Center of Hollywood
How Much: Free

Tillamook (Tillie) Cheddar is a world-class artist who has had 19 solo exhibitions in the United States and Europe. She uses a dynamic color transfer technique to create her work. She is described as "A Masterpiece of conceptualism" and has been featured on Good Morning America, Inside Edition, and Fox News Live, to name a few. Currently, you can relish in her work at The Art and Culture Center of Hollywood. BTW, in case you didn't know, Tillie is a 10-year-old Jack Russell Terrier. That's right, a dog. So it's art the kids are sure to dig. I mean, a doggy did it, how cute is that? This Sunday, you can check out her art for free during a Family Day at the art center. (Prices are usually $7 for adults, $4 for students, seniors and children ages 4-13, and free to children under 4 when accompanied by an adult.) On Sunday, the gallery will be open free of charge from 12-4 pm. From 1-3 pm, the kids can also participate in a free hands-on art activity titled "Be Like Tillie", where they can emulate Tillie's innovative technique and create their own masterpiece to take home. After all, if a dog can do it...

  1. We went and loved it (my kids are 15, 14 and 9) - they have one more free family Sun. I think with an activity. My daughter entered the photography contest & won a great prize (for her and the dog!) It's a fun intro to art!
