Storytime at The Foster Museum

April 6, 2025 @ 10:30 am 11:00 am

Storytime at The Foster Museum

Join us at The Foster Museum for a 30-minute exploration led by Anna! Our young guests will have a 15-minute warm-up with our arts and crafts activity or imaginative play before we gather to discuss museum rules. Next, we’ll get our “wiggles” out with some movement and song before embarking on an adventure through the museum galleries. Along the way, we’ll find a cozy spot to sit and enjoy a specially selected short story about nature and our environment. After storytime, all are welcome to participate in a scavenger hunt and spend some time at our art tables for a wonderful respite in our “oasis in a hectic world.”

This program is free of charge, and advance registration is suggested; walk-ins are welcome. Once the program is completed, guests may stay and tour our exhibitions, use our art tables, or take one of our many scavenger hunts.
