Spring Break Programs
|
This spring break, join us for a STEM-inspired story time (March 25 - 29, 11 am - 12 pm)!
With each program, we'll read and explore a special book followed by a STEM craft and activity. Programs are suitable for all ages, but small children may require adult assistance. These programs are generously made possible by Team 1 Plastics, as part of the Storyland exhibit, on view through May 2024. Tickets are $3 per participant. Everyone who enters the program room is required to purchase a ticket, including adults. Children are required to have at least one adult with them in order to participate in the program. Online ticket sales will close the evening before each program, but tickets may still be purchased in-person on the day of the program, if there is remaining capacity. Open for play all week (March 25 - 29) 10 am - 4 pm |
