San Diego Museum of Art BONUS ...

As with ALL activities outside the classroom...call ahead to make sure the event is till happening AND ask to make sure it is appropriate for your age level. Sometimes what is "written" in a promotional brochure does not clearly indicate if you are too mature for some events...while not quite old enough for others. Double check!
