Kids Free Days

All kids age 12 and under get free admission every Thursday in August!

All kids 12 and under will receive free admission to the Museum. We’ll be offering a wide array of activities in the Historic Village for kids to enjoy, including visits with animals on the farm, demonstrations from the Potter and Tin Smith, and historic games on the Village Square. The John L. Wehle Gallery, Nature Center Trails, and Depot Restaurant will also be open during these days. On the way out, stop at the Flint Hill Store to shop for traditional gifts, historic toys, fudge and goodies, and items made directly from the Historic Village. It’s the perfect time to bring the whole family out to enjoy all that the Museum has to offer. Join us on August 5, 12, 19, and 26!
