The details

Story Time in the Galleries at the Milwaukee Art Museum is a wonderful way to introduce children to the world of art. Each Saturday morning, families gather in Windhover Hall to embark on a storytelling journey through the museum's galleries. The event combines the magic of storytelling with hands-on art-making, allowing kids to create their own masterpieces inspired by the artwork they encounter.

This event is perfect for families looking to spend a creative morning together. With free admission for kids 12 and under, it's an accessible and enriching experience. The museum provides all the materials needed, so just bring your imagination and enjoy a morning of art and stories.
