On Saturday, September 12, the Ogden Museum of Southern Art will once again present its annual Family Fair from 10 AM to 2 PM. The FREE admission day will feature a variety of art activities inspired by a Southern county fair, as well as games and performances geared towards children of all ages.
Begun in 2008, the Family Fair provides visitors of all ages a unique opportunity to participate in a variety of interactive and creative experiences while spending time in a dynamic, visually rich environment. Hands-on, age-appropriate activities are designed to encourage children to explore the Museum, while the county-fair theme appeals to even the youngest museum-goer.
Art activities inspired by a county fair will include creating soft-sculpture pies for a Pie Contest, fanciful hats, pinwheels, and a hobby horse you can actually ride! Family Fair will also feature games for young visitors such as an Art Scavenger Hunt, Go Fish, Ring Toss, and Pin the Tail on the Universal Mule by Jack Niven, plus a fun family photo booth!
Entertainment includes performances by Johnette Downing, Calliope Puppets, The New Orleans Suzuki Forum and the Ogden Museum Teen Docent Puppet Theater. Food and drink will be available for purchase.
