## About

Playful 30-minute gallery tours at the North Carolina Museum of Art, built for kids aged 5 to 11 and the adults with them. Guides help children find new favorite artworks and revisit familiar ones through looking games and conversation, and the short length suits young attention spans. Tours meet in the West Building on the first Saturday morning of the month and are free; reserve a spot through the museum's ticketing page.
