April Virtual Family Day

About this event

Explore hands-on activities inspired by

Chicago artists and MCA exhibitions. Subscribe to our Family Newsletter to receive a special set of at-home activity prompts via email. New at-home activity guides for families are added to our [Learning Resources] (https://mcachicago.org/Publications/Learning-Resources) page monthly.

The MCA has reopened to the public and we're excited to invite families back for safe, socially-distanced gallery time. Kids and grown-ups can enjoy self-guided prompts for looking at art. No hands-on making activities are offered. Prepare for your visit by reading our full safety guidelines and by checking out our social story. Reserve a complimentary time slot at the museum with your family on Family Day.

The MCA is a great place for families to connect with contemporary art. We offer experiences that redefine the way that kids and families explore and create art together.
