Babies Welcome!  In fact, you need a baby in tow if you want to join this group.  Join us the third Wednesday of each month for a casual and lively discussion led by a museum educator in the galleries—just for parents and caregivers and their pre-toddler age (18 months and younger) children.   Expect a special kind of outing that allows for adult conversation where no one minds if a baby lends his or her opinion with a coo or a cry. 

All talks are from 10:30-11:30. Tours are limited to 10 pairs, please register at the Ticket Center, 216-421-7350. Meet us in the Atrium at the Visitor's Desk.
