ABOUT THE NOAH’S ARK GALLERY

 

Five years in the making and occupying an 8,000–square–foot gallery, Noah's Ark at the Skirball is an interactive Children’s gallery/museum.
 
Inside this one of a kind museum is a floor–to–ceiling wooden ark, filled to the rafters with whimsical animals.  You will find hundreds of fanciful animals—from cuddly companions to life–sized puppets— all crafted from recycled materials and everyday objects, including bottle caps, bicycle parts, baseball mitts, croquet balls, mop heads, and rear-view mirrors.  So come prepared to play, build, climb, explore, collaborate, and more.
 
While visiting the galleries, meet a puppet, create a take–home art project, or hear a story. The adjacent amphitheater presents performances created specifically for the Noah's Ark visitors by award winning choreographer Ramaa Bharadvaj, acclaimed playwright Doug Cooney and musician Jessica Fichot.
