Lewis Family Gallery

The Lewis Family Gallery offers a wonderfully interactive space where kids and adults alike can engage directly with the museum's collection. This hands-on environment lets visitors create their own art, take on building and puzzle challenges, snap photos, and explore a special Romare Bearden collage playhouse. It's perfect for families wanting a more active museum experience than traditional galleries typically provide. The space maintains high cleaning standards to keep everyone safe while they play and learn. Your admission to this gallery is included with your general museum ticket, so there's no additional cost. The gallery keeps specific hours separate from the main museum, so plan accordingly if this is your main focus for the visit. If your family needs accessibility accommodations or services, reach out to the museum's Volunteer Internship and ADA Coordinator at (704) 337-2081 or [email protected] ahead of time. The museum's website also has detailed accessibility information to help you prepare for your visit.
