King Day: Building Our Future

Celebrate Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. with us at The Art Institute of Chicago's Ryan Learning Center. The museum is hosting an afternoon of family-friendly activities and performances inspired by Dr. King’s moving “What Is Your Life’s Blueprint?” speech. Admission to the Ryan Learning Center is always free for everyone, every day. While you’ll need a museum ticket for in-gallery activities, kids under 14 are always free. Plus, a special bonus for locals: Illinois residents enjoy free museum admission on King Day as part of the museum's Free Winter Weekdays program.
