Join us at our FREE Hands on History craft event for children.

This month’s craft activity Join us for a fun and informative activity as we craft a shadow puppet theater.

Children and their parents are invited to this free series occurring on select Saturdays from 11 AM to Noon throughout the year. Each session includes a brief, age-appropriate history lesson in the galleries followed by a craft or activity.

Each workshop is engaging and educational for elementary age (5 – 11 years) children. Topics for the workshops rotate to feature seasonal lessons and activities.

RSVP is requested and also available at the door. Each workshop is free of charge.

By creating something hand-made related to history topics, children create memories based on their history lessons. Families can expect a fun-filled learning hour at the Museum!
