For just $10, you and your children can enjoy a magical evening at Vizcaya Museum and Gardens from 6-9 p.m. with readings from local authors on the East Terrace, overlooking Biscayne Bay.
What else can you experience at this kid-friendly Memorial Day Weekend event at Vizcaya?
History told in first-person stories from elders shown as a streaming of The Rich and Forgotten History of Black Coconut Grove in the Gardens.
Create your own stories using Story Starters with words or art-making in small workshops facilitated by museum educators.
Explore the contributions of Bahamians who created the shell murals in the grottos in small group discussions.
