The MAC is for everyone and when it comes to family fun, this is the place to be.
MAC x YAA
We've teamed up with leading children's arts charity Young at Art to bring you engaging activities, workshops, performances, and tours for the whole family.
Saturday Art Club
Join us every month for a Saturday art workshops for young artists. There really is something for everyone.
We have everything a family would want for a great day out.
Our free to visit Playroom is open again to drop into whenever you want with art supplies for kids. (Big kids can join in too!)
Situated on the ground floor, it’s open from 9am - 5pm, Tues - Sun. It's a fun, vibrant space where kids can learn about the art in our galleries, create their own art to take home or put up on the gallery wall, or just relax, play, or read a book from our carefully curated selection.
Imagination Stations | 9am - 5pm, Tues - Sun
Upcoming Artist takeover free drop-in activities | 19 Nov, 3 Dec & 17 Dec
Check out our Imagination Stations stuffed with art supplies and activity sheets for kids and grown-ups to create art whenever they like.
You'll find our three Imagination Stations throughout the building, no need to ask to use them - just grab your supplies and get creative.
We have activity sheets inspired by our current exhibitions and
plenty of art supplies - letting your imagination run wild.
You can also download activity sheets to make art at home.
