Jeff Koons: One Ball Total Equilibrium

For over five years, CMOM has transformed the way children experience art. With the launch of the Art and Innovation Lab, creativity took center stage. Children could dive into a variety of hands-on projects, such as drawing and sculpting, while guest artists inspired them one-on-one to discover a true passion for art.

Now, we are raising the bar once more by showcasing Jeff Koons’ One Ball Total Equilibrium. Children will not only marvel at this iconic artwork but also participate in a series of creative projects inspired by it. They will explore still life drawing, construction, and STEAM activities that blend math, art, and science, just like the masterpiece itself. Hands-on activities, touch screen information and guest speakers will inspire children to look past the ordinary.

Daily Events:

  • Still Life Drawing inspired by the One Ball Total Equilibrium art.
  • Team Jersey where you can design your own team jersey.

Scheduled Events:

Saturday, August 29: Channel your inner artist by sketching from a posed mannequin, just as Koons did when he brought the Seated Ballerina to life.

  • Ballerina Drawing: 1 – 3 p.m.

Sunday, September 6: Join us as we stitch graceful ballerinas using time-honored techniques, with a special session where toddlers can craft their very own ballerinas.

  • Sewn Ballerina sessions: 10 a.m. – 12 p.m. and 1 – 3 p.m.
  • Wooden Ballerina: 10 a.m. – 12 p.m.

On display through December 31.
