MFAH Playdate


Through play and experimentation in programs like MFAH Playdate, toddlers have their first experience with art. This program invites children 4 and younger, with their adult caregivers, to join a Museum educator for a multi-sensory experience in the galleries. Participants sing songs, listen to storybooks, and join in fun games and activities, all while being introduced to ideas and themes found in the art on view at the MFAH. The session in October focuses on the work of Carlos Cruz-Diez.

Tickets

  • $10 per adult / $10 per child
