UPDATE (March 13) — Out of an abundance of caution, we are taking the proactive step of cancelling our Spring Break programming. We remain open for viewing of our exhibitions. Please visit our Health and Safety page to learn more, and thank you for your understanding.

This Spring Break, explore Asian springtime foods, games, and more!

Join us as each day is dedicated to different cultural, kid-friendly activities. Enjoy picnic food by learning how to make onigiri and spring rolls. Create vivid Rangoli designs with colored sand, play the dragon tail game with friends, fold beautiful lotus flowers, and enjoy the spring breeze as you fly a kite. Plus, take advantage of FREE admission to our exhibition!

Admission is free for all activities, which begin daily at 12 p.m. Children must be accompanied by adults.
