We invite you, and all Bay Area families, to attend this year’s de Youngsters Day Out. This free, in-person, all-day event includes hands-on art making activities, entertainment led by community partners, and workshops and presentations by local contemporary artists interpreting our permanent collection inside and outside the museum.
Proceeds from the event will support our Equity Schools Partnership Project, which provides in-classroom instructional support, art supplies, and transportation for students who do not typically visit the de Young.
