Charlie is homeschooling full time now so we will be visiting the Museums a lot mote. I can’t wait to check out what is on at the Carter in the next couple weeks.
What’s Coming to the Carter
Thanksgiving came early this year with Art Mashup on November 24. This Sunday, visitors can make a feast of delicious bites and drinks at the Carter. Try out samples from some of Fort Worth’s favorite sweet-treat shops, local breweries and distilleries, and find the perfect holiday gift. Visitors can draw their own still-life, jam out to their favorite song in the galleries with music by DJ Wild in the Streets, and decorate their own coaster for free. No tickets or reservations are required. Visit our website to get a full list of the tasty vendors coming to the Carter.
Tuesdays just got a lot more creative! Itty-Bitty Art returns this November 26 for a wide range of activities to play with your little ones. Visitors can interact with their tiny tots with activities inspired by the Carter’s collection enjoying a fun-filled afternoon. Learn tips and tricks for enhancing curiosity and imagination with early childhood specialists! Tickets are $10 per child, free for Carter members. Accompanying adults are free (max two adults per child; no older siblings).
We’re thankful for our visitors this Thanksgiving. Visitors can make the most of their holiday breaks with the Carter. While we will be closed for Thanksgiving, the Carter will be open the rest of the week making us the perfect place to bring the family for a more creative holiday. Visitors can discover their new favorite exhibitions and interact with some of our amazing works!
