When we promise that Crystal Bridges can be fun for the whole family, we mean the WHOLE family. So let’s give the preschoolers a turn!
Join us for an afternoon of kid-friendly fun as we craft, explore, and play our way through the museum as part of our 10-year anniversary celebration! From a kick-off performance by a guest performer to kid-friendly artmaking in the studios, we’ve got plenty of creative activities for your growing artist to enjoy as we say “Happy Birthday” to Crystal Bridges. And, with it all being inspired by favorites in our permanent collection, you know they’ll be learning every step of the way.
Free, no tickets required. Drop in anytime from 11:30 am to 2 pm.
