Art Basel Miami Beach invites young visitors to experience art through Art Kids, a complimentary program designed for children ages 5 to 11. Taking place in the East Lobby on Level 2 of the Miami Beach Convention Center, Art Kids offers a fun, supervised environment led by Miami Children’s Museum professionals.
This year’s theme is sustainable art, encouraging kids to explore creativity using recycled and repurposed materials. Through hands-on projects, storytelling, and playful learning, children will discover how art and environmental responsibility are connected.
Pre-registration is recommended—simply complete the form and email it to dpinon@miamichildrensmuseum.org. Open during all official show hours from December 3 to December 7, Art Kids ensures your children have an inspiring, safe, and educational experience while you enjoy the fair.
