Grab a sketchbook and a pencil to embark on a family-focused tour in the galleries. Led by a docent, art comes to life through stories, sketches, songs, and other fun activities! Then head to the Education Studio to transform everyday objects into art, just like artist, Ai Weiwei! Inspired by his impressive Water Lilies—made of 650,000 LEGO bricks—we'll explore how ordinary materials can be used in extraordinary ways. Join local artist, Monyee Chau for a playful, hands-on experience where imagination leads the way!

Family Tours depart promptly at 11 and 11:30 am from the Fuller Garden Court.

Capacity is limited on a first-come-first-served basis. Please arrive 5–15 minutes early to secure your spot.
