Do freshly sharpened color pencils make you smile? Do you wish that perfume came in “crayon scent”? Do you feel the need, the need for a felt-tip marker? Then you might have fallen victim to the new coloring craze that’s sweeping the nation.
If you’re on the hunt for new coloring sheets, look no further than your local library or museum! The New York Academy of Medicine has organized “Color Our Collections Week” (Feb. 1 – 5). All across the country, libraries and museums are offering free online coloring sheets featuring items from their collections.
You can download the following coloring sheets developed from items in Furman’s Digital Collections or Special Collections and Archives.
Download the coloring sheet, color it, and then take a photo and post it to social media with the hashtag #ColorOurCollections.
Enjoy!
