Get ready to strike your best Shakespearean pose! 

Inspired by our current exhibition, Imagining Shakespeare: Mythmaking and Storytelling in the Regency Era, families will recreate the artwork on display together through creative movement and acting, bringing Shakespeare’s words and scenes to life. Explore the galleries and prep your acting chops to capture your own “snapshot” of a Shakespearean scene! No acting experience required—just imagination and a willingness to play! 

Attendance is free with a recommended $3 donation. There are two sessions available with these recommended ages:

11:30am – 12:30pm  |  recommended ages 5-7
