This July, add some spice to your summer with a free Family Day celebrating the art of food at the museum.
Bring the whole family and flex your creative muscles with food-inspired artmaking in our studios, kick back with a live performance by beloved children’s artist Hot Toast, cool down with lemonade provided by Raising Cane’s on Walker Landing, enjoy bites and snacks by food trucks and vendors, outdoor picnics, and more.
Make sure to catch the live Guac Off sponsored by Avocados from Peru in Eleven before heading to the museum-wide activities and celebrations.
Admission is free, but we encourage everyone to bring a non-perishable food item to donate to our food bank partners. See you there!
