Family Programs

Join the Museum’s education staff and guest artists in a hands-on learning experience. This monthly program explores ideas and themes found in current exhibitions.

Children ages 4-12 and their adult companions can explore pertinent themes in art by looking at works on exhibit in the galleries and participating in multi-disciplinary, hands-on art activities.

The activities promote critical thinking skills and creative, interdisciplinary art making. The two hour, Saturday morning sessions are a fun family outing.
