What to do this weekend with your family? There is so much to do for families and kids. We invite you to check out our events calendar, with many family-friendly events and things to do on the weekends and every day of the week. We constantly update our events calendar, so there is always something new and exciting to do! 




It’s the first Sunday of the month, which means free admission at the Barnes. First Sunday at the Barnes is a little different this February! Join us on the lower level for interactive storytime sessions, family-friendly films, and access to our collection galleries. Plus, pick up a free art activity kit to enjoy at home. Check back soon for more information and a list of films.




Enjoy free all-day admission to the Brandywine Museum of Art, plus join in creative art activities led by teaching artists. At 11:15 a.m. and 12:15 p.m., enjoy high-energy, interactive African and African-American stories in a program of “Folktale Fun” presented by master storyteller TAHIRA.  A First Sunday favorite with listeners of all ages, TAHIRA shares ancient wisdom, original stories, and songs using call ‘n response and humor to convey powerful life lessons. TAHIRA is a 2023 Delaware Division of the Arts Master Fellow and winner of the 2021 New Jersey Governor’s Award for Distinguished Service in Arts Education. 

This winter, there’s no better place to warm up—and chill out—than Longwood. Escape the chill and bask in the warmth of our beautiful new West Conservatory as it begins its peak flowering season. Relax amid lush, tropical gardens. Unwind as the soothing sounds of water transport you to another world. Soak up the sun and leave your winter worries at the door.



The aquarium experience inspired by the Animal Crossing™: New Horizons video game on the Nintendo Switch™ system is coming to Adventure Aquarium! From January 11 to February 12, themed activities will allow Aquarium guests to explore the wonders of aquatic life while enjoying the world of Animal Crossing™: New Horizons. 



Explore paleontology’s final frontier in Ice Dinosaurs, the Academy’s exciting new special exhibit. Transport yourself to the Late Cretaceous period in the Arctic Circle, where dinosaurs actually lived year-round in extreme polar environments. This brand-new, immersive, and educational experience brings this era to life with animatronic dinosaurs, engaging stories, and real fossils, skeletons, and museum casts.



Imagination Street a new play space that kids and parents can enjoy together. For kids (ages 0–9), it is a meaningful, hands-on play experience in nine, interactive, themed playhouses that form a “city” to explore. For parents, there’s a cafe-style lounge to gather, drink coffee, or get some work done. Because the space is an open concept, parents are in close proximity of their children the entire time. They offer open play sessions, private parties, events, and more.




Burn off some energy while having some fun while skating with the family.

Guests to the Philadelphia Museum of Art can pay what they wish for admission every Friday evening and the first Sunday of the month. Reservations are required.




Urban Air Trampoline and Adventure Park have adventures behind every corner. They are the ultimate indoor playground for your entire family. Take your kids’ birthday party to the next level or spend a day of fun with the family, and you’ll see why we’re more than just a trampoline park.
