Children are artists. Using the various materials and tools displayed at the “Museum Just for Kids,” they create freely.
Artworks, objects before they become artworks, the passage of time, and the movements that emerge—these are the essence of this museum. What will you encounter today? What will you be able to do…?
No matter when or how many times you visit, this is a space for play and learning that sparks that sense of excitement.
