The Santa Monica History Museum is excited to invite children and their families to our FREE Hands on History workshop on Saturday, November 19th from 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM at the Santa Monica History Museum at 1350 7th Street, Santa Monica, CA 90401. This workshop will celebrate Native American Heritage Month.
When Spanish explorer Gaspar de Portola set up a camp for his party to rest near modern-day Santa Monica in 1769, this area was populated by the Tongva Gabrielino Native Americans. During this Hands on History workshop participants will learn more about the original inhabitants of this area and what their daily life was like. After the lesson in the galleries, participants will move to the museum lobby where they will get a chance to play with replica Native American toys and games.
Please RSVP for this workshop to Kathryn Evans, Development & Museum Manager at kevans@santamonicahistory.org or (310) 395-2290.
