Kids' Art Adventures

 

Kids' Art Adventures invites families to make art together inspired by MMoCA's current exhibitions. Activities are planned for 6- to 10-year olds, but younger siblings are welcome. Children must be accompanied by a parent or other adult. Program participants should plan to meet promptly at 1 pm in MMoCA's main lobby.

American Family Insurance provides generous support for Kids' Art Adventures and other family activities.
