Kid Fun in Grown-Up Museums

Art museums are smart. They know that in terms of creativity and imagination, kids have a lot in common with the artists featured on their walls. To acclimate kids to new ways of looking and discussing what they see, grown-up museums are tailoring programs to young people and their families. It's a great way to groom future museum-goers and artists.

  • The Whitney Collection

    Ongoing Works from the permanent collection explore the fragmentation of abstraction in early modernism, realism as it focuses on people and society, and the convergence of the mind and the body.

  • Biennial 2010

    Thurs, Feb 25, 2010 – Sun, May 30, 2010 The selection of 55 artists in the Whitney's 75th biennial represents a "barometer of an artistic moment" in America, eschewing a specific theme. It is the fewest number of artists ever in a Whitney biennial, and for the first time, there are more women than men.
