Santa Day
media release: Free admission all day plus pictures with Santa 9:30 am–3:30 pm, presented in collaboration with the Progress Center for Black Women.
Santa returns to Madison Children’s Museum for family photos! In honor of this VIP visit, the museum is open for free all day on December 2, with special holiday-themed crafts in the Art Studio. Madison Reading Project will give away children’s books, while supplies last. All activities, including the photos with Santa, are free.
As Santa’s time at the museum is limited, registration is required for Santa photos. Be sure you’re signed up for MCM’s email updates list and watch your inbox for a message when registration opens. Photos will be available for free digital download approximately two weeks later.
For those registered for Santa photos: plan to arrive no later than 2 pm to make sure you get a picture with Santa before he has to head back to the North Pole. The line may be long, so please bring entertainment for young children as you wait.
This year we offer a bonus photo opportunity! Fans of Tiana and Elsa can meet our local friends Bayou Princess and Ice Queen for photos from 1-3 pm. No registration is required for these photos; simply find these special guests in the museum to say hello and take a photo together using your phone.
This event is presented in partnership with our friends at the Progress Center for Black Women.
