Kidsville at the Parthenon will take place on select Saturdays in January and include a socially-distanced activity and take-home kit. Families with children ages 12 and under can enter the Parthenon for free on these dates and times. A Kidsville team member will be taking registrations at the entrance of the Parthenon beginning at 10:30 AM. We will be located upstairs in Parthenon's Naos room that houses Athena unless otherwise noted.
