Description
Look, play, and learn with your child at Mini Mia on first Wednesdays!
Each month’s event features a guided gallery tour unique for caregivers with their little ones (ages 0-5), a movement class, and story time in the Family Center. The perfect way to introduce your child to art in a comfortable setting. This is a very popular event and spaces fill fast and pre-registration is required.
This free program has become so popular that Mia is now offering four sessions per month — two sessions on First Wednesdays and two more on First Fridays!
