Bring the Cool Family Festival

Join Cool Culture and the Brooklyn Museum for an afternoon of free art activities for the whole family! Families with young children are invited for an afternoon of joy and creativity that will showcase the power of art to build community, assist in our personal healing, honor our ancestral practices, and highlight the diverse cultures that make up New York City. All activities encourage caregivers, families, and children to see themselves as the artists, storytellers, creators, and curators that they are.
