Mini Mia Saturday

About this event

Look, play, and learn with your child at Mini Mia in the Minneapolis Institute of Art. This free family program is designed for caregivers and little ones ages 0 to 5, giving you a welcoming way to explore art together in a comfortable setting. You can enjoy a guided gallery tour, movement, and story time, all at a pace that supports curious young children. It is a thoughtful choice for families who want a relaxed museum experience that feels engaging, hands-on, and age appropriate. Because the event is popular and space is limited, it is a good option for planning ahead when you want something special for your preschooler or toddler.
