MarinMOCA Offers Free Hands-on Art Program for Families

Marin Mommies presents a sponsored shout-out from the Marin Museum of Contempary Art (MOCA).

The Marin Museum of Contemporary Art’s Free Family Day happens the first Sunday of the month.  This free program provides art-making opportunities to parents with their children. A fun and educational alternative to “screen time,” the program is taught by professional art instructors in a variety of media – from painting to mixed media to clay. The next event is March 1, from 11am–4pm at 500 Palm Drive, Novato, 94949. Admission is free when you bring a child 2 - 12 years old.

Families who visit on the first Sunday of the month will be met by Family Greeters who will provide an “Art Investigator” Guide which ensures a fun and engaging tour through the galleries. The Greeters will direct families to the art workshop space and help them get started. Art projects can be customized for children 2+ so that each participant can take home a completed artwork. Families can also visit artists working in more than 55 studios on the MarinMOCA campus.

Find more information online marinmoca.org/families including directions, parking information, picnicking, and purchasing snacks or lunch.

MarinMOCA is a vibrant arts center offering exceptional contemporary art exhibitions in three galleries.
