Family Play Days

Play Days at the CMA are free opportunities for families to be creative and curious and connect through art together. Events include music, storybook readings, games, and art making for the whole family. Each event has a theme that relates to an exhibition, artist, or artworks in the CMA’s collection.  Check back here for upcoming Play Day and Open Studio sessions.

Open Studios
