Description

Celebrate the arts at the PMA! This FREE community event gives kids the chance to sample the visual and performing arts through various activities. Some of our favorite local arts organizations will be on site featuring short performances throughout the afternoon, including the Pensacola Opera, Children’s Chorus Ambassadors, Pensacola Little Theatre, and musicians from the Pensacola Symphony Orchestra will perform with a couple of their students.

Visitors can also enjoy hands-on art activities and a scavenger hunt, as well as our 70th annual Youth Art Focus exhibition on view throughout the 2nd floor of the museum. This exhibition highlights artwork created by K-12 students and art educators from the Escambia County School District.
