There's no business like snow business when artist Marion Nichols shares the unique art of cutting paper into intricate snowflakes at The Magic House on Saturday, January 19 and Sunday, January 10. Visitors are invited to join the blizzard of activity to discover how to snip fantastic flakes using their own designs. The Snowflake Workshop is a part of The Magic House's Visiting Artist Series. This drop-in workshop is free with museum admission and no reservations are required.

A former preschool art teacher, Marion Nichols is renowned for transforming ordinary sheets of paper into delicate snowflake patterns, and is the author of several books on the subject.

The Visiting Artist Series is a yearlong celebration of the arts at The Magic House, St. Louis Children's Museum. One weekend every month, museum visitors have the opportunity to learn from a variety of professional artists as they demonstrate their techniques. Children are invited to work alongside artists and explore similar materials as they join in the fun of the creative process.

9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 9 and 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday, Jan. 10.
