Show & Tell is an exuberant, interactive exhibition designed specifically for visitors ages 2 to 9. Featuring artworks and films from the Walker’s collection chosen for their kid-friendly subject matter—animals, alphabets, food, miniature worlds, and imaginary creatures—Show & Tell engages young visitors through zones that encourage looking, listening, reading, making, climbing, and playing.

With vibrant graphic and spatial design, the exhibition encourages children to engage their senses and imaginations and to be hands-on with installations and activities inspired by the works of artists such as Andrea Carlson, Katharina Fritsch, Jeffrey Gibson, Caroline Kent, Roy Lichtenstein, and Claes Oldenburg. Show & Tell is the result of cross-disciplinary collaboration across the Walker’s Visual Arts; Moving Image; Design; and Public Engagement, Learning, and Impact teams.

Curatorial Team

Curators: Siri Engberg, Senior Curator and Director of Visual Arts; Pavel Pyś, Curator of Visual Arts and Collections Strategy; Patricia Ledesma Villon, Assistant Curator of Moving Image.
