School’s out on a few upcoming days — and we’ve got you covered. 🙌

Our School’s Out Camps give kids a full day to make, move, cook, explore and spend time with other kids while grown-ups keep the rest of the day moving.

Coming up:

🎃 Halloween Kitchen — October 30
🌱 The Great Garden Mystery — November 3
🍂 Woodland Wonders — November 3
📚 Book & Cook — November 11

If school is closed but your schedule isn’t, let us help fill the day with something they’ll actually be excited about.

Families can spend the afternoon exploring the Museum, getting hands-on in the Edible Schoolyard and Cooking School, and taking part in simple activities that help kids see how they can care for themselves, their families, and their community.

Best of all: admission is free from 1–5 PM.

Come play, learn, lend a hand, and spend an easy Sunday afternoon together.

Some days, the win is simply getting out the door.

Come as you are. Let them lead. Follow the laughter.

We'll take care of the room to climb, create, imagine and play.

Kids say the most incredible things when you listen. Sound on. 🎧

Adrian and Jaxson are taking it from here.

Sometimes the best way to understand the Museum is to hear from the kids who make it come alive.

🚨 NEW EXHIBIT COMING SOON 🚨

Introducing: Groundhog in a Tree.

It’s immersive. It’s unpredictable. Our Edible Schoolyard Garden Manager did not approve it.

Please enjoy this completely unscheduled addition to the Museum experience. 😂

Almost forgot that this is the whole point.

The wide eyes. The brave first try. The "again!"

Little moments of play are doing big work—and there's plenty of room for them at MBCM.
