About this event

Family Friendly Arts & Culture

Calling all little ones and their grown-ups! This program welcomes children ages 2–5 and their adults into the museum before it opens to explore art together, focusing on the making and the doing rather than the final product. We will enjoy songs and story time led by Highland Park Library, look at a work of art, experience a new art-making process, and most importantly, have fun! Best of all, your little ones can get messy at the museum instead of at home. Today we’re bringing big creativity to big paintings inspired by the work of ARCO Artist Rubén Guerrero. Recommended for ages 2–5, but all children are welcome. This is not a drop-off program; children must be accompanied by at least one adult over the age of 18. Both grown-ups and children need to register. The program is free with regular museum admission: $12 for adults, $10 for seniors 65 and over, $4 for non-SMU students, free for members, free for youth under 18* *Free museum admission for youth 18 and under is made possible by a grant from Fichtenbaum Charitable Trust, Bank of America, N.A., Co-Trustee.
