Calm Mornings are a free program with the purchase of general admission. Museum admission for children ages 17 and under is always free. We invite visitors to our Calm Mornings program on Saturday, April 27, from 9am to 1pm, inspired by the film He Named Me Malala (2015). ASL interpretation will be provided. SCHEDULE: 9–10am | Early Gallery Access Explore the Identity gallery, featuring costume design, makeup, and hairstyling, in our Stories of Cinema exhibition on Level 2, where sound and lighting adjustments will be made for a more sensory-friendly viewing experience.
10–11am | Family Workshop Visit the Shirley Temple Education Studio on the museum’s Lower Level for a family workshop inspired by He Named Me Malala (2015). This workshop is inspired by... He Named Me Malala, which follows the true story of Malala’s bravery and strength in her journey advocating for girls to have access to education. Families can design and create a movie poster featuring a woman in their life who is strong and inspiring, like Malala! In addition to the Calm Mornings program, we encourage visitors to attend our accessible, open-caption screening of He Named Me Malala at 11am in the Ted Mann Theater. The screening is part of our weekly Family Matinees film series. A separate admission ticket is required. The Shirley Temple Education Studio will remain open during the screening as a space for relaxation and continued art-making until 1pm. If you have any questions or need assistance planning your visit, please email museumeducation@oscars.org.
