Santa Day: Free Admission

December 2, 2023 @ 9:00 am – 4:00 pm

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.

Advance registration for Santa photos is currently full. There is not an active waitlist, however, you are welcome to check in on site at the museum on Saturday to see if spaces have opened up. Madison Children’s Museum is open with free admission from 9 am-4 pm with no registration required to visit the museum. DIY photos with Elsa will be available 1-3 pm at the museum, on a first come, first served basis.

This year we offer a bonus photo opportunity! Fans of Elsa can meet our local friend Ice Queen for photos from 1-3 pm. No registration is required for these photos; simply find her on the second floor of the museum to say hello and take a photo together using your phone. Unfortunately, Bayou Princess “Tiana” will be unable to join us due to illness. We wish her a speedy recovery!

This event is presented in partnership with our friends at the Progress Center for Black Women.
