St. Louis Family Events

Families are invited to the Saint Louis Art Museum every Sunday afternoon for free hands-on art activities with fun themes, special performances, engaging demonstrations and a lively, 30-minute family tour through the galleries. 

Grab a spot at Play Street Museum's Pint Sized Playtime! This special playtime is for kids ages 3 and under. They'll explore exhibits in the museum that are just their size. Reservations are required.

Visitors are invited to sing Happy Birthday, sign a giant birthday card and cheer for Raja as he stomps open his presents to celebrate his 27th birthday. Raja is the first Asian elephant born at the Saint Louis Zoo.

Moms, bring your favorite superhero to this date night at The Lodge Des Peres. Couples will enjoy a special dinner, dancing, inflatable obstacle pro-racer bounce house, photo opportunities and party favors. Advance registration is required. 

Kids Art Night Out at Yucandu Art Studio features a new creative project each month, ranging from mosaics, to collage, print-making, glitter, clay and more.
