Grab & Go Activity: Coloring Pages from Museums and Libraries Around the World

1/27/2021

1 Comment

 
For this week’s craft, we have collected coloring pages provided by museums and libraries from around the world as a part of the Color Our Collections Campaign. Back in 2016, the New York Academy of Medicine Library (NYAM) first launched this initiative that has provided fun and free downloadable coloring pages of historical art pieces from nearly 114 different institutions. Learn more about this campaign at https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/100-museums-transformed-their-collections-free-coloring-pages-just-you-180974116/

To create the coloring books, we’ve selected pages from institutions such as the Center for the History of Medicine, the Davenport Public Library, the Denver Botanic Gardens, the Harley-Davidson Archives, the Smithsonian Libraries, NYAM, the University of Waterloo, the National Archives of the United States, the British Library, and the Huntington Library, Art Museum and Botanical Gardens.

To browse for more coloring pages please visit the NYAM coloring collections at http://library.nyam.org/colorourcollections/

There will be a kids and teens version of the coloring book.

Also, because we like being green here at Basalt Regional Library, all coloring pages have been printed on scrap paper. Happy coloring!

I love these! A long time ago, I used to color to destress and be able to sleep after working on my dissertation into the wee hours of the morning. I am definitely relying on coloring again to destress during the pandemic. Thank you so much for these!
