Kids and Families Events

Please note- we will not be offering Summer Camps during the summer of 2022. We miss having kiddos here for camps and look forward to when we are able to start up that program again.

We will have other smaller offerings throughout the summer though, both at the museum and within the community. Stay tuned for more details.
