Hands on History

This month we have a very special guest: Julia Bogany, Tongva elder and educator, will lead our workshop! We will be learning about the indigenous people of the Santa Monica and greater Los Angeles area and participating in a crafts activity, making shell necklaces.

Join us on Saturday, April 14th, at 11 AM.

Children and their parents are invited to this free series held monthly on a Saturday morning from 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM. Each session will include a short, age-appropriate history lesson in the galleries followed by a related craft or activity.

Each workshop is designed to be engaging and educational for elementary age (5 – 11 years) children. Topics for the workshops will rotate throughout the year to feature relevant, seasonal lessons and activities.

RSVP is requested, but registration is also available at the door. Every workshop is offered free of charge.

By creating something with their hands related to the history topic of the month, children will further create memories based upon their history lessons. Families can expect a fun-filled learning hour at the museum!
