Our experience
Sunday is the cool-down, and the Barnes makes it simple: free admission all day, with programming aimed right at little kids. There is drop-in art with the ColorWheels teaching artists and a scavenger hunt for ages 2 and up, a storytime from 10:30 to 11:45, and the Lady Hoofers Tap Ensemble doing performances and rhythm games at 1 and 2:30. Best of all after a hot holiday weekend, it is indoor and air-conditioned. It is free but capacity is limited and you need to register ahead, so grab a spot when registration opens Thursday.
