We have a Summer Pass that lets your family enjoy the museum from Memorial Day – Labor Day for $60.  Beginning Monday, May 28 the museum will be open from 9:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. Monday – Friday, all summer long. We have lots of great programs planned with new ones this summer and the Art Studio will offer guided art on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays! And don’t forget about Camp Imagination! We are offering many exciting camps this year for all ages!

Our story: Elizabeth’s story will take a hiatus for the next few months. The Dampier family welcomed a little boy to their family on April 30.

The 5th Annual Bike Safety Day, in memory of Joshua Palomares-Beckles, is a family-friendly event geared toward educating children about the importance of wearing properly fitted helmets to reduce head injuries. Bring your bike to the FREE outdoor Bicycle Rodeo with the WSPD Downtown Bike Patrol Unit. Families will have the opportunity to learn and demonstrate best practices with regard to safety gear and audio-visual awareness. FREE helmets while supplies last.

Attend Bike Safety Day and receive $2 off museum admission.
