There’s nothing better than seeing your child’s imagination come to life. Whether pretending to be a scientist, teacher, or sea captain, the moments you share today just might shape who they become tomorrow. At the Betty Brinn Children’s Museum, we offer engaging events that help our visitors explore their world, work on problem-solving skills and social-emotional development. From Community Access Days and Sensory-Friendly Sessions to dance parties and Friendship Fridays, our Museum is a place where children can do what they do best – wonder and play.
October 24, 3-6 p.m.
Get ready for a not-so-scary Halloween celebration that’s packed with family fun! Meet the animals from Tatiana’s Tiny Zoo, enjoy a performance by Kohl’s Wild Theater, watch a guest artist take on a pumpkin carving challenge and craft glow-in-the-dark slime in our Be A Maker space. It’s a spooktacular time you won’t want to miss!
