The Museum of Modern Art is Offering Spring Break Programming for Kids and Parents

The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) is offering special family programing that will coincide with the New York City Public School spring break this year. Kids and families will have the opportunity to experiment with materials and techniques, listen to stories, and get moving to music during a week of special Spring Break Family Programs.

From Monday April 25 to Friday April 29 the museum will provide kids with a great place to learn and experience art.

"All the programs fall under the umbrella of our current Art Lab theme of 'Process,'" says Elizabeth Margulies, Director of Family Programs and Initiatives at MoMA."We wanted to think about that theme and what kind of programs we could offer during this week when kids are off from school."

Here's what visitors can expect:
