Bayou Bend Collection and Gardens presents an afternoon celebrating art—created by and for children—that helps forge a connection to Texas and American heritage. Families are invited to enjoy art-making workshops; participate in a collaborative group project; and play interactive games.

The Texas Children’s Art Festival also features demonstrations that emphasize the way art keeps everyone connected to the past, how it improves the present, and why preserving it is important for the future. Bayou Bend, as the former estate of the Hogg family—one of the great art-collecting families in Texas history—serves as a focal point for the style, medium, and period of art represented on this day.

Admission is free!
