About this adventure
The San Jose Museum of Art (SJMA), located next to the Circle of Palms in downtown San Jose, is offering a Family Art Studio experience this weekend. Children will be guided by resident art educators to appreciate cutting-edge contemporary paintings and immersive sound and light installations. In hands-on workshops, they can create their own "Silicon Valley Color Memory" collage albums using watercolors, paper cutting, eco-friendly fabrics, and mixed media. The exhibition halls provide "Look & See" visual exploration cards specifically for children, guiding young visitors to experience the beauty of art from multiple perspectives, including light and shadow, texture, and emotion. Family Experience and Facilities: • Strollers and Accessibility: The museum features a completely accessible design, with elevators connecting all exhibition floors and wide, flat walkways, allowing strollers to move freely throughout all areas. • Parent-Child Facilities: Restrooms are equipped with safe changing tables. The lobby offers soft resting sofas and gentle lighting, suitable for soothing and feeding infants. • Recommended Age: Children aged 3 to 14 and families who enjoy artistic creativity. • Visit Tip: It is recommended to book tickets online in advance. Directly opposite the museum is San Jose's famous Circle of Palms, where you can take a leisurely stroll after the art activities.
