Bring the entire family to Free Second Sunday for our free family series, Play Day!

Drawing inspiration from the work of Emory Douglas and his iconic use of text and imagery in The Black Panther Newspaper, we invite you to design a poster that tells your story and amplifies the issues that matter most to you. Let your art spark conversation, inspire change, and uplift your voice!

Art Activity: Create posters in Prebys Learning Center with vibrant illustrations that inform and inspire your community.

Schedule:

At 11 a.m., explore works in our special exhibition, For Dear Life, with a kid friendly tour.

From 11 a.m. - 2 p.m., enjoy music by a local DJ, a cozy book nook, crafts and book recommendations from the Librarian on the Go, and free play on McGrath Terrace

At 11:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m., join dancer Alyssa Rose Soderberg from Disco Riot for two movement classes in Jacobs Hall. Together, make a dance score inspired by Anna Halprin's Circle the Earth, 1981.

At 12:30 p.m., listen to stories, songs, and rhymes in Storytime with Librarian on the Go.

*Museum admission is free from 11 a.m. – 5 p.m. for all visitors, with Play Day offerings happening between 11 a.m. – 2 p.m.
