Family Fun Days
Join us for these fun-filled days where you can create a piece of art, be entertained by a theatrical or musical performance, and much more. On these days admission is free for participation in all hands-on workshops and entrance into all exhibitions and scheduled events.
Discovery Backpacks
Take an exciting journey through the Museum inspired by a backpack filled with art projects, puzzles, books, games, and easy to follow instructions. This do-it-yourself gallery adventure takes 30 to 45 minutes and can be borrowed from the Coat Check area in the Wieland Lobby. Generous support for Discovery Backpacks is provided by Publix Supermarkets Charities.
