At Turtle Bay, we strive to provide an environment to explore the world of art, history, culture, science, and more. The Famous Artist Portfolio Program is one of many ways that we encourage children to learn and create through hands-on activities.

Every year, Turtle Bay exhibits the artwork of students who are reached by Turtle Bay's Famous Artist Portfolio Program. Visit the Museum today to check out this year’s Famous Artists Children’s Art Exhibition: Contemporary Color and Shapes. There is a variety of artwork to see from K-8 students at schools throughout our community!

Turtle Bay’s Famous Artists Portfolio Program is an art resource that community members and educators can use to teach learners about important art, art history, the lives of famous artists, and more! This free program allows parents, teachers, and/or community members to present reproductions of significant artworks to students in the classroom. Portfolio prints are organized into nearly 70 age-appropriate themes. Follow-up art activities are suggested for each portfolio. If you are interested in using this resource for your learners, no artistic experience is necessary! Just an enjoyment of working with children and a belief that art matters.
