18 Interactive Art Shows for Kids

From Chaotic Sticker Installations to Suspended Canine Exhibits

— June 30, 2014 — Art & Design
Parents and guardians who are looking to expose their children to more art and culture would do well to take note of these interactive art shows for kids. Set in galleries, museums and even outdoor in city streets, there are a number of installations that target children as much as they do adults. Bright, imaginative minds make the perfect audience for artists around the world.

From art exhibits that play on classic children's toys such as colorful stickers and markers to other museum spaces that are essentially turned into artistic playgrounds that are as mentally challenging as they are physically, these interactive art shows for kids range in participation, scale and purpose to suit various personalities. Parents won't be short on summer activity ideas.
