BYU museum 'Mornings @ the Museum'

Brigham Young University's Museum of Peoples and Cultures is again offering "Mornings @ the Museum," providing families in the community with fun summer activities.

 

The program is designed for children ages 3-12, accompanied by an adult, who are invited to the MPC for an hour of cultural presentations, stories and hands-on, take-home activities. Because interaction with the museum's educational exhibits is encouraged during each session, specific topics have been chosen to highlight the museum's current exhibits, "Touching the Past: Traditions of Casas Grandes "and "Kachinas of the Southwest: Dances, Dolls, and Rain." Reservations are required before attending any given session.

Due to the program's high demand last summer, the program will now be offered twice a week Tuesdays at 10:30 a.m. and Thursdays at 1:30 p.m. through Aug. 7.

The program is free of charge, but space is limited. For a full schedule visit the education page at mpc.byu.edu and call (801) 422-0022 for reservations.
