Second Saturday Family Fun Offered at History Museum
Jackson Hole Historical Society and Museum staff has developed fun activities for the family this winter and spring. The goal of the organization is to frequently use its new year-round classroom at 225 N. Cache. One way is to promote family fun while inspiring and educating youth.
The first Second Saturday program is slated for January 14 from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. The theme is cabin fever remedies and what a family can do to stay warm and happy together during the long, winter months. The activity is braiding a rug in front of the fireplace and includes storytelling.
On February 11, the theme is Valentines’ Day and families will create old-fashioned valentines. On March 10 participants explore bird facts and build bird baths. April 14 is a day of decorating and planting a mini greenhouse, in preparation for spring. The final family program explores American Indians and families sew a pair of moccasins. All programs include storytelling.
Suggested donation is $5 per child or $10 per family. Child must be accompanied by an adult(s). Please contact Mindy Barnett, Youth Education Assistant, 733-2414, for more information.
