Feed your family’s minds and imaginations through Danforth Museum and School of Art Family Programs.  Each program is unique, but all use hands-on, brains-on experiences to bring the works in our Children's Illustration Gallery to life.

Take some time for yourself and your baby. Explore the Museum at a time when it is closed to the general public. Spending time with other adults in stimulating discussions about current exhibits, while learning fun, interactive activities that support the healthy development of your child's imagination and creative thinking skills. And, if babies cry, don’t worry, you’ll be in good company.

Appropriate for caregivers (of all ages) and infants from birth to 18 months.

Find yourself and your child(ren) transported into different times and places through original children's book illustrations and related songs, rhymes, and (sometime silly, always fun) finger plays that older preschoolers will adore.

Appropriate for caregivers and older preschoolers. Ask at the Museum Lobby for the gallery meeting place.

Free for members or with Museum admission
