SUMMARY:Art Detectives: Meet Me at the Art Museum
DESCRIPTION:by David Goldin \nThis month\, Art Detectives will join Stub\, the museum ticket\, as he guides us through the art museum\, uncovering the secrets behind what happens inside. Afterward\, we’ll explore the KIA’s galleries and craft our own museum to take home \nPlease note: This program will use a different room and therefore can accommodate only 20 people (adults and children). Please register in advance\, as day-of walk-ins may not be able to be accommodated.  \nArt Detectives is a free program for children 4-8 years old (but all ages are welcome). Join us as we read a story\, look at art\, and make a project to take home. Caregivers must stay with their children at all times.

SUMMARY:Motawi Tileworks Trunk Show
DESCRIPTION:Shop a selection of more than 100 art tiles crafted in Ann Arbor\, with many one of-a-kind designs. At 1pm\, hear from special guest Nawal Motawi\, who will talk about the art and science of producing tiles and their latest work. Many tiles will be offered including current\, prototypes and rarities. \nAbout Motawi Tileworks: \nMotawi Tileworks is a ceramics studio in Ann Arbor\, Michigan\, where we craft art tile with heart and history. Our handcrafted ceramic tiles can be found in our gallery\, online\, and in shops across the country. We also design and create large-scale tile installations for homes and public spaces—think fireplace facades\, kitchen backsplashes\, bathrooms\, and hospitality feature walls\, all made to order with care. Nawal Motawi\, our founder and artistic director\, started making tiles in her garage after studying at the University of Michigan’s Stamps School of Art & Design. Inspired by historic tilework\, she honed her craft\, selling pieces at the local farmers market before launching The Tileworks in 1992. Through years of experimentation\, reading\, and a passion for the process\, she built a company that celebrates artistry and craftsmanship. \nToday\, Motawi Tileworks employs over 40 people and is recognized for its progressive business practices\, including Toyota Business Practices\, lean manufacturing\, and open-book management. We were honored to be named a Small Giant by Forbes—a distinction for companies that prioritize excellence over mere expansion. \nAt The Tileworks\, we believe in making beautiful things and fostering a workplace where creativity thrives. As Nawal always says\, “It’s fun to be good!”
