Kids and Families

Greene Family Learning Gallery

The Greene Family Learning Gallery, located adjacent to the Robinson Atrium in the Stent Family Wing, offers two distinct spaces for creative play that combine cutting-edge technology with hands-on activities. Both spaces offer a welcoming and fun child-centered, child-directed environment, with age-appropriate activities for kids ranging from infants to eight-year-olds.

The Greene Family Learning Gallery is open during regular museum hours and is included in museum admission. Please note that the Greene Family Learning Gallery is closed during events such as HIGH Frequency Fridays, Friday Jazz, and UPS Second Sundays. 

The CREATE space is a bright and open studio centered on the creative process and devoted to developing young visitors’ art-making abilities. EXPERIENCE is a deeply immersive gallery that enables visitors to explore what art means, how it feels, and where it can take us. Each gallery features a quiet space with activities designed for reflection and an area specifically for babies and toddlers.

The goals of the Greene Family Learning Gallery are to

  • offer a space for families to make memories while fostering stronger connections between caregivers and children;
  • empower children and their caregivers to explore the Museum and more confidently engage with its collection;
  • inspire wonder and encourage children to be curious about the art they encounter every day; and
  • celebrate creativity, imagination, empathy, and play, and help families develop these skills through one-of-a-kind interactive experiences found only at the High.

In addition to the Greene Family Learning Gallery, the High offers a wide range of family programming, including Summer Art Camps and the popular Toddler Thursdays and Saturdays and UPS Second Sunday events.
