Event Schedule:

9:30 AM – Doors Open

Holiday Corner
Children can create their own holiday ornaments and snowflake crafts to take home as keepsakes.

Cookie Decorating Workshop
Get into the holiday spirit by decorating cookies with seasonal sprinkles, icing, and candy! Each child gets a cookie to take home (or enjoy at the museum).
