Inktober at the New York State Museum

Get creative at the New York State Museum! Friday afternoons in October, stop by Discovery Place to participate in Inktober, a month-long drawing challenge inspired by a new weekly prompt. Grab a pen, pick up some paper, and let your imagination take the lead. Visitors of all ages and artistic abilities are invited to create.

Take your artwork home with you or leave it behind to become part of our growing community art collection. Selected drawings from throughout the month will be featured in a special display at Halloween Spooktacular on October 31. No artistic experience necessary—just bring your imagination!
