Family Day at PdA

When you hear the names Michelangelo, Leonardo and Raphael do you automatically think, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles?

Does the thought of touring an art gallery leave you cold?

Do you think to create art you have to be an “artist?”

Place des Arts wants to blow the dust off those notions and shed light on the world of fine art!

Family Day at PdA is designed to actively engage families in learning about art in a fun, interactive and informal environment. Each family day offers a guided tour of the current exhibitions plus three drop-in style workshops geared for all ages where families create artworks based on what they have learned during their visit.

Don’t be intimidated by art, get engaged in it! 

Family Day Schedule 2012/13

Admission to Family Day at PdA is by donation.
