Museum Family Days

The Pearl offers free monthly Family Days with hands-on art projects, artist demonstrations, performances, and more. Projects are designed for ages 5 and up, and can be enjoyed by both children and adults!  The featured art projects are inspired by current exhibitions, seasonal holidays, or other concurrent events. 

Family Days are typically held the 2nd Saturday of the month from 11:00am-3:00pm, but may vary depending on other events happening at the museum.  Please check our calendar below for upcoming dates.  Participants are welcome to drop in at any time between the posted Family Day hours.  No registration is required.
