For families with kids ages 6 and up

Families create hands-on art projects inspired by discussion and activities in the galleries. Explore Grant Wood: American Gothic and Other Fables, Zoe Leonard: Survey, and other exhibitions to learn how artists tell stories about people through pose, expression, setting, or by using objects in experimental ways. Then create your own artwork in the studio!

This program has been developed specifically for kids ages 6 and up. Siblings are welcome to join the group but must have a ticket.

Tickets are required; every adult and child must reserve a ticket to attend this program. Members: please log-in to view and reserve discounted tickets. $10 per child, plus Museum admission ($25 adults; $18 seniors. Museum admission is free for members and children under 18). 

Tickets cannot be refunded or exchanged. If you have any questions about which tour is most appropriate for your family, please email familyprograms@whitney.org before purchasing your tickets.
