Inspired by Hebru Brantley's 2017 solo show at the museum, our newest guide explores the meaning of the word hero during the COVID-19 pandemic, including an exhibition guide and videos of his work.

Create and illustrate your own original cartoon character using our worksheet and prompts inspired by personal interpretations of heroism. Share your creations and tag us on social media. #MuseumFromHome and #ElmhurstArtMuseum
