The Iowa Children’s Museum, in partnership with Think Iowa City, is proud to celebrate National Poetry Month with a special performance from Caleb “The Negro Artist” Rainey!
The program will include a 30-minute performance of Caleb’s work, followed by a question and answer session. All are welcome at this family-friendly performance, but due to the length of the program and themes including racial identity and racism, school-age children and their families will get the most from this event.
Free with the price of admission; always free for museum members!
