What to Expect...
Museums and galleries across the UK are running events especially for families to explore with curious kids during the summer holidays. Art Fund’s National Art Pass has launched Kids Aloud, an initiative to bring all these family events together and makes it easy to find the best activities to do during the school holidays.
From hands-on crafts and creative workshops to storytelling and outdoor adventures, there's something for every young explorer. Museums offer a wonderful opportunity to step away from screens and discover something new together. Find fun and friendly ways to explore, create and make a day of it as a family.
And with a National Art Pass, Plus Kids, the whole family can enjoy free or reduced-price entry to hundreds of museums, galleries and historic houses across the UK. Plus 50% off major exhibitions, and hundreds of café and shop discounts, making it easier to explore, discover and create together.
