The Art of Play
If you grew up in the 1970s, it's likely that your first introduction to the Art Institute was the board game Masterpiece. Doesn't ringa bell? Meet the game's characters and the works they vied for on this tour of museum favorites. Make sure to stop by the Kraft Education Center to play the game!

Let the Games Begin
Has the summer heat got you too hot to trot?
Step inside where you can flex your mind and walk lively in pursuit of works of art that celebrate the sporting life. Although just like fashion, specific sports fall in and out of favor, the basic urge to win, place, or show is timeless.

Exploring the World: Behind the Lions Game
Lead your family on a trek through the museum in pursuit of four fascinating works of art. Pick up your Exploring the World self-guide in the Kraft Education Center.
