<p>In line with our commitment to inclusivity, we’ve decided not to host mommy/daughter or daddy/daughter events. Our goal is to create a space where everyone feels valued and supported every day. Instead, on Mother’s and Father’s Day, we’ll be hosting Donuts with Grown-ups—a playtime open to all, especially those who may find these holidays challenging. Donuts will be available for purchase to enjoy here or to take home. Regular play admission applies, and it’s free for grown-ups. Let’s celebrate together and make everyone feel welcome and cared for.</p>

<p>This exhibition, drawn from the permanent collection, celebrates the use of color by artists. While many viewers expect art to be colorful, in reality, much of it is not. When it is used, color has an amazing ability to add power and drama to a work. Artists often utilize color for expressive purposes, seeking to elicit a specific emotion or feeling. ROY G. BIV plays off the idea of the color wheel (Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet) to explore the role that color plays in art.</p>
