The Museum Comes to Life Day!
The BIG RevealFriday, June 24 at 10am
We've got a day full of surprises planned for you on this special "The Museum Comes to Life Day!". 

The excitement will begin at 10am and we hope that you will mark your calendar for this special time!  We'll start over at our new multi-purpose room, "Piper's Nest" as we plan for a ribbon cutting and very special, BIG surprise!  Then all day long we will have special guests in many of our exhibit areas to help bring each area to life that day!  We're happy to have several fun guest appearances, a few scenes from the Empty Pot by the Octavians, storytelling by Lynda Deniger, author of Patti the Pelican & The Gulf Oil Spill, Karen Pfeifer from Middendorf's and Dr. Guillot, ENT & Facial Plastic Surgeon.  This is shaping up to be a spectacular day!

Caring Through Cranes   

Our goal is to help children "create, connect & comfort" by participating. We can't wait to see 1,000 paper cranes created by these sweet little discovery hands! 

1000 Paper Cranes

Kids will:

  • learn the tradition and history of the ancient art of origami & the story of Sadako & the Thousand Paper Cranes 
  • learn to fold paper cranes
  • Write a wish, hope or prayer on each of their cranes
  • Participate in storytime

Join us on  

Thursdays at 4pm!
