Thursdays in August are Kids Free Days at GCV&M!
Did you know? All kids 12 and under will receive free admission to the Museum on Thursdays in August – and in 2025, we have four days of kids free! We’ll be offering a wide array of activities in the Historic Village for kids to enjoy, including historic games on the Village Square, ice cream making, new farm animal-themed treats in the D.B. Munger & Co. Confectionery, and more!
In the John L. Wehle Gallery, kids can try hands-on crafting at the Art Tent, enjoy meet & greets with our partners from Braddocks Bay Raptors (August 14), plus explore a new clothing exhibit inside the Gallery lobby and all of our current exhibits!
The Depot Restaurant will also be open during these days! On the way out, stop at the Flint Hill Store to shop for traditional gifts, historic toys, fudge and goodies, and items made directly from the Historic Village. It’s the perfect time to bring the whole family out to enjoy all that the Museum has to offer.
Join us every Thursday in August!
Enjoy all the Museum has to offer!
More information coming soon!
