Family, Free for Members Only, Holiday Highlights

Family 2nd Sunday

Join us every Second Sunday for a fun-filled day of art, creativity, and connection—perfect for families of all kinds! Kid-friendly menu options are available at Kaffeina Café. All activities are included with Museum admission*, which can be purchased on-site or by clicking the “Book Now” button. Individual activity registration and participation is offered on a first-come, first-served basis. We recommend arriving early to secure your preferred time slot for Studio Explorers, as space is limited.

*Member admission is free. Members still need to “book” 2nd Sunday admission in order to register for activities.

Creation Station

Join us for a free, hands-on art experience during Family Second Sunday from 10 am to 2 pm! Kids and their grown-ups can unleash their creativity in a space filled with colorful, quirky materials. There are no rules—just pure imaginative play! Make anything your heart (and hands) can dream up and let your creativity run wild. All ages.

Studio Explorers

Get hands-on in the Studio with a professional artist! Each month, children and their families create a unique work of art inspired by pieces in our collection—experimenting with new materials and techniques in a creative, welcoming environment. All ages. On-site registration is required. Learn about the Teaching Artist.

This month, we will be creating 3D paper homes inspired by the snow-covered houses of the Brandywine Valley seen in Andrew Wyeth’s paintings. I’m sure they will make for lovely seasonal decor in the home as well as families gather for the holidays.

Group 2: 11:15 am – 12:15 pm
