Come check out our new exhibit at the Maria V Howard Arts Center! Art That Tells A Story is now on display May 19 - September 6, 2026 featuring works from our permanent collection. This exhibit consists of works that pull the patron into a story either through pairings of various works from the collection or individual works of art. The public is invited to share their thoughts on the works of art.

This exhibit is curated in conjunction with the Children’s Museum's current summer exhibit: Storyland: A Trip Through Childhood Favorites. Their exhibit asks visitors to step into interactive favorite storybook scenes, while the arts center asks the visitors to bring their own story and experiences into the interpretation of works of art.

Now showing at the Children's Museum & Science Center:
"Storyland: A Trip Through Childhood Favorites™"

Beloved children's books come alive in "Storyland: A Trip Through Childhood Favorites™." Step into the pages of seven beloved and award-winning children’s books as you journey through life-sized scenes designed to develop early literacy skills and open a life-long love of learning. Each story is transformed into a 3D play space where children interact with the story and its characters. Build a snowperson in “The Snowy Day,” explore an oversized alphabet playground in “Chicka Chicka Boom Boom,” harvest vegetables in “The Tales of Peter Rabbit” and more. Play games, solve puzzles, and use your imagination, as you travel through the following books – “The Tale of Peter Rabbit” by Beatrix Potter; “The Snowy Day” by Ezra Jack Keats; “Where’s Spot?” by Eric Hill; “If You Give a Mouse a Cookie” by Laura Numeroff; “Chicka Chicka Boom Boom” by Bill Martin, Jr. and John Archambault; “Abuela” by Arthur Dorros; and “Tuesday” by David Wiesner.

On display May 19 - September 6, 2026.

While the play "Freud's Last Session" is strictly fictional, the impact that these two individuals had on our understanding of the world is widespread. Although we have grown from them in some ways, many of the core ideas they promulgated are relevant today. Please get your tickets now!!
