There’s something for the whole family at this month’s Chatham County Free Family Day featuring our annual PULSE Art + Technology Festival at the Jepson Center.

Family Days are fun, educational, and FREE for Chatham County residents! We invite you to participate in hands-on art projects, gallery exploration, story time, and many more activities designed specifically for the entire family. Create DIY masterpieces, play art detective, or explore the interactive ArtZeum and our new TechSpace featuring technology-based artworks.

With gallery activities throughout the museum, everyone can get in on the art and the action. Drop in for a little while or stay for the entire afternoon. It’s all free. And it’s always fun.

Due to anticipated volume of visitors and limited capacity in our gallery, all guests may not be able to view our French Impressionism exhibition Monet to Matisse. If you want to see this exhibition, we strongly advise visiting on a different day.

Please note: Free admission is for Chatham County residents and students currently enrolled at area colleges only. Proof of residency/enrollment is required for admission.

PULSE daytime programs are free of charge. Investment is provided by the City of Savannah, the Rotary Club of Skidaway Island, Infinity Inc., and generous donors. In-kind support has been provided by BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment Inc., Funomena, Annapurna Interactive, the Elumenati, and Panic, Inc.
