Family-Friendly Opportunities

While parents or caregivers are always the best judges about what’s age appropriate for their own children, UMS offers these recommendations to guide you through our season. If in doubt, feel free to contact the UMS Ticket Office, who will be happy to discuss whether an event might be appropriate for your family.
