Youth & Family Programs
Art Explorers Club
This free kids-only membership program introduces visitors ages 6-13 to a world full of art through creative missions inspired by pieces from our collection. Explorers collect prizes and stamps in their special members’ passport with each project-all while expanding their imagination and art research skills.
Funding for Art Explorers Club is made possible by generous support from the Winifred Johnson Clive Foundation.

Library Summer Workshops
This summer workshop series is an exciting program designed for youth and teens to explore the world of art and design through hands-on activities. This year's workshop theme is inspired by Central Florida's 2023 Summer Reading Challenge, All Together Now and the correlating exhibition Together Again: local and Global Connections. Participants make personalized tote bags inspired by the work of artist Yinka Shonibare.

Museum Art Kits
MUSEUM ART KITS are available free of charge at our museum and through partner libraries across Orange County, Seminole County, and Osceola County while supplies last! Each box contains the art supplies necessary to create six art projects the whole family can enjoy - families can also participate using supplies you may have on hand at home! Follow along on our YouTube channel with video demonstrations hosted by RMA's museum educators.
Spring 2023 Art Kits are no longer available. Fall 2023 Art Kits will be coming in September!
