Story Time in the Gallery

Story Time in the Gallery is a monthly free event geared towards kids ages 7-9 and their caregivers. Attendance is FREE, but sessions are limited in attendance, so Pre-Registration is Required. Choose between a 9:30-10am or 10:30-11am session.

Visiting TMORA with Kids

Families can watch for occasional Family Days and Children’s Tours. The Children’s Tours require reservations and sell out quickly. Watch our Family Fun Calendar for dates. While many of the exhibits will appeal more toward adults than children, they have had exhibits that featured children’s art, children’s stories and fairy tales and they often have special Easter Egg exhibits in the spring.
