FEATURED EVENTS

This lively and interactive chamber concert is perfect for introducing your 3 – 9 year old to the instruments of the orchestra.

During colonial times in New England, winter had two “crops” – ice and maple syrup. Ice was harvested from ponds to stock the ice house for summer heat. Sap begins to flow in maple trees, ready to be collected and boiled down to the sweet syrup that is as popular today as it was long ago. At this Colonial Cookery and Customs for Kids, Museum Educator Laurie Walker will be discussing how maple syrup is made, and will be showing the children how to use maple syrup to make a simple but delicious Colonial Maple Tart.

On Saturday, February 23rd, USA Hockey and 350 local association across the country will host Try Hockey For Free Day! Participating locations encourage kids, ages 4 to 9, to come try youth hockey as part of Hockey Week Across America. All locations will have limited equipment available for use.
