Every third Saturday of the month, TMORA hosts a free family activity in the Robert J. Brokop Gallery. Join us to hear a story by a Russian author and/or related to art and culture of the region, learn about artworks, and create a take-home art project of your own. Afterwards, explore the museum with an interactive gallery hunt. Advance registration is requested. We sometimes include a kid-oriented mini-tour through the galleries as well– be sure to check the calendar for this month’s description!
