Family Day

Some limited-capacity offerings, detailed below, require advance registration; for all others, no registration is required, and drop-ins are welcome.

Please join us at the Harvard Art Museums for an afternoon of family-friendly activities open to all ages. Explore the museums with scavenger hunts; use your eyes, mind, and imagination to engage deeply with works on view; and play with light, shadow, and color in our Materials Lab makerspace, inspired by László Moholy-Nagy’s Light Prop for an Electric Stage.

Note that registration is required for the Spotlight Tours of László Moholy-Nagy’s Light Prop for an Electric Stage and Family Art Making Workshops.
