Do you love museums? Have you ever wondered how an exhibit is created? Spend a day “behind the scenes” digging through the archives at Rokeby Museum, examining our historic collection, and creating your very own exhibit.
Learn how to:
• Tell a story with artifacts
• Handle, store, and care for historic objects
• Write imaginative exhibit labels
• Create your own exhibit
Parents/Guardians are invited to the exhibit showing in the historic house at pickup.
Students bring their own lunch, and a healthy snack is provided. Space is limited to 10 students.
