Mobile Museum Tour - In 2023, Habitot continued its Mobile Museum Tour with 16 pop-up events in nine cities across the East Bay. The museums most popular exhibits are mobilized and presented along with art and maker stations led by core art and education staff, in outdoor community parks, libraries, schools, and other venues for children. Exhibits include Waterworks, a water play and discovery exhibit; Imagination Playground, large foam building blocks; a Paintable Wall; a Magnetic Ball Wall; and a Baby Ball Pit. Art-making stations encourage creativity, and a boat-building maker table fosters invention and design. A sliding scale makes the events accessible to a wide range of families. The Tour proved support in post-pandemic recovery, re-engaging families and children in social interactions, while also strengthening parent-child bonding. Over 3,700 parents and children attended.
