If you want to introduce your kids to creativity and expression, look no further than the Museum of Fine Arts in St. Petersburg, Florida!
This museum has been inspiring family's since 1965, and has not only a permanent collection for you to enjoy, but rotating exhibits and even kids events. It really is a family museum!
The permanent collection covers a range of art, in all forms, and from all over the world. You can take the family on a journey through Europe, America, Africa, Asia, and even explore art mediums such as photography and Ancient Western art.
As you walk around, you'll see that art isn't just paintings! Art can come in all forms - including pottery and sculpture, so it's a great way for kids to see how they can express themselves.
The younger kids will enjoy seeing all the colors and patterns, and the older kids will be able to appreciate the techniques and meaning behind each piece.
The temporary exhibits are also worth keeping an eye on, so you don't miss out. They introduce kids to various cultures around the world, and throughout history.
