Family Activity at DCA

Find out what's on for families during April and download our Family Activity Calendar

We host many fun activities for families at DCA, from film screenings and workshops, to free creative activities for all ages and online resources. To make it as easy as possible for you to plan your family trip, our monthly calendar brings everything together in one place.

The school holidays are here and we've got plenty of family fun to keep the wee ones entertained. Head to DCA Cinema for films that the whole family can enjoy together, plus Create Space offers a free, drop-in space filled with activities, art materials and books. This month also sees the opening of Acts of Creation: On Art and Motherhood. This major group exhibition brings together the joys, heartaches, myths, mess and mishaps of motherhood through over 100 artworks and brings with it a programme of special events.

If you're coming along to DCA to enjoy some family activity, don't forget that you can extend your visit with lunch in Jute Café Bar (you can even colour in the kids menu) and a trip to our shop, which stocks some great toys, books and pocket money friendly games. 

Download our Family Activity Calendar below, where you'll find dates and times for all of our upcoming events as well as the opening hours for Create Space. You can also scroll down to book for some of our highlights.
