Family Days at the Museum
Join Museum on Main staff and volunteers for an afternoon of family fun on the Museum Lawn! On the 3rd Saturday of each month (June– September) from 11am-2pm, children, parents, and grandparents are invited to meet at the Museum on Main for FREE hands-on demonstrations, crafts, and activities that relate to each month's theme. Each Family Day is sure to be an afternoon of fun and unique learning experiences you and your family will not want to miss it!
