The details

Story Time in the Galleries at the Milwaukee Art Museum offers a unique blend of storytelling and creativity for families. Every Saturday morning, children and their guardians gather in Windhover Hall to embark on a journey through the museum's galleries. This event is designed to engage young minds with art by pairing a story with a related artwork, followed by a hands-on art-making session.

The experience is both educational and entertaining, making it an ideal weekend activity for families. With free admission for kids 12 and under, it's an accessible way to introduce children to the world of art. The museum's welcoming atmosphere ensures that both kids and adults have a memorable and enriching experience.

💡 For Parents

The story time starts promptly at 10:30 am, but it's a good idea to arrive a bit earlier to find parking and get settled. The museum's underground parking is $5 for members and $12 for non-members.
