Summer is in full force and we are busy at the museum! Our visitor count definitely picks up in the summer with visitors from all over, researchers, and kids… a whole bunch of kids. We love having the kids come and visit and bring in their adults.
In the summer, we do programs for the kids on Tuesday mornings. These are FREE crafts for the kids to come and make and take home with them. This year we have 11 craft projects and most are new, so the kids that have been coming for a couple of years will get to create new crafts. Below is a list for the summer.
