Prebys Play Day: Stories We Share

Based out of Conrad Prebys Learning Center and sprawling into the galleries, we invite you to celebrate Celia Álvarez Muñoz: Breaking the Binding. We are collaborating with Gente Unida, a human rights coalition dedicated to sharing stories of humanity and perseverance. Together, we will create and experience art that highlights stories of our border region:

Art activity: Our Neighborhood
Transform hanging objects and small playhouses into a community neighborhood inspired by Muñoz’s artwork - our very own Postales (Postcard) come to life!

Art activity: Hello Neighbor!
Draw and paint on postcards that can be sent to a neighbor or friend through our special mailbox.

Schedule |
At 10 a.m., explore Celia Álvarez Muñoz’s work with a kid-friendly tour of her exhibition.

At 11a.m., learn about people’s experiences in the border region with a special presentation by Gente Unida.

At 12:30 a.m., listen to bilingual stories, songs, and rhymes in storytime with Ms. Katia from the La Jolla/Riford Library. 

There will also be live music by DJ Pebo, a cozy book nook, and an interactive, free play area in Jacobs Hall.
