Lewis Family Gallery

The Lewis Family Gallery is a hands-on creative space where children and adults alike can interact with the museum's collection. Inside, you'll find plenty to keep young minds engaged: make art, tackle building and puzzle challenges, snap some fun photos, and explore a playhouse designed as a Romare Bearden collage. It's the kind of place where learning happens naturally through play, and kids come away feeling like they've discovered something special. Best of all, visiting the gallery is included with your general museum admission—no extra ticket needed. The space maintains rigorous cleaning standards to keep everyone safe and healthy. If your family needs accessibility accommodations or services, the museum's ADA Coordinator can help; reach out at (704) 337-2081 or [email protected] for details. The gallery operates on a regular schedule, so plan your visit accordingly and check the museum's website for more information about accessibility options.
