Community programs are listed in our calendar. Look for celebrations of Days of the Dead in October and Juneteenth in June. The Family Explorations! series, funded by ChevronTexaco Corporation with additional support provided by Wells Fargo, presents programs usually on a monthly basis that are designed to allow children and their adult family members an opportunity to explore creatively topics related to art, history and natural sciences. In addition, every changing exhibition at the museum is supplemented with special programs organized and presented by the Education Department.
