CHINA
Opens June 11
Enter a realm of majesty and mystery. Explore three thousand years of Chinese art and culture in five exhibitions, together as a family. The highlight, The Emperor’s Private Paradise: Treasures from the Forbidden City, is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see murals, paintings, furniture, jades, and more from within the Forbidden City in Beijing—before they are permanently reinstalled in the restored palace. Pick up a kids’ Passport to CHINA and collect stamps at all five exhibitions!
