## About

Tiny Tales and Mini Makers is the Autry Museum of the American West's weekend-morning program for its youngest visitors. On select Saturdays and Sundays from 10:15 to 11:15 a.m., toddlers, preschoolers and their families cozy up for a lively read-aloud picture book, a get-the-wiggles-out song, and then a simple hands-on craft or art activity to take home. It is free with museum admission and free for Autry members, but registration is required, so reserve a spot for the date you want. Afterward, families can stay for the Autry's Family Play Space, open 10 a.m.–4 p.m. on weekends. The museum is in Griffith Park across from the Los Angeles Zoo, with free parking for visitors.
