A stimulating hour for elementary school children on days when school is not in session.
School's out for summer! Each School's Out program for children K-5 will give children the chance to try something new, fun (and maybe messy!).
Join us as we put the summer heat on pause and escape back to a colder time by creating your own googly-eyed penguin, playing in fake snow (we forgot to save some from last winter), and best of all decorating your own scented Evergreen trees so the smells of the holiday season can follow you everywhere you go!
