Clothing is functional, but it’s also art — hence the endless expressiveness of fashion. Children will explore this concept at the Bard Graduate Center, which is hosting this Family Day in conjunction with its exhibition “Fashioning the Body: An Intimate History of the Silhouette.” But while the show deals with historical attempts to reconfigure the body with articles like corsets and bustles, the workshop, led by Misha McGlown, will help young visitors use their imaginations to shape what they’d like to wear. After touring the exhibits, they’ll cut and collage patterns for pins, pendants and other jewelry. (The day includes gallery admission and nutritious snacks.)
