SPECIAL EVENTS
Toys! Exhibit
December 7, 2011 - January 22, 2012
Do you remember the toy that you begged your parents to buy you for Christmas when you were a kid? Did you run downstairs on Christmas morning to see if Santa brought you the doll or board game that you just had to have? If so, then visit our special exhibit gallery over the holidays for our toy and holiday-themed exhibit. We’ll display toys from our collection from days gone by and tell stories of how families from around the world celebrate the holidays. Children can make an ornament to decorate our holiday tree and engage in hands-on activities to learn how different cultures celebrate the holidays and ring in the New Year. A fun, nostalgic-filled experience for the whole family!
