Step back in time this summer as we explore our nation’s rich heritage through hands-on crafts inspired by the past!

On July 26th, join us for our final Funday Friday to explore the history of corn husk dolls, tracing their origins from Native Americans to European settlers and enslaved African Americans. During the Revolutionary era, children made these dolls from available materials, showcasing their resilience and creativity despite adversity. Participants will learn to craft their own corn husk dolls, connecting with the historical ingenuity of these children and the broader Revolutionary War era. 

Drop in any time from 1:00-3:00pm to try your hand at our all-ages activities!
