It's a BIIIIIIIIIIG universe out there—from galaxies to planets to stars! Put on your space suit or your alien costume and let's explore the Universe together. Join the Troupe and work together to discover one shared story through interactive games, imaginative prompts, and space-themed acting challenges to bring these characters to life. Each class will shape the adventure, and tell us what happens next. We will share the entire story with friends and families on the final day of class.

This class runs six weeks: 1/22, 1/29, 2/5, 2/12, 2/26, and 3/5 (no class on February 19)

Explore, create, and collaborate during this drop-in class for children 2-5 and their caregivers. Each week, experiment with the mediums and styles of both well-known and emerging artists. This week, we will experiment with sunprints as we focus on Anna Atkins, a botanist & illustrator from the mid 1800’s. Anna used cyanotypes to capture botanical imagery & published the very first book of photographs in 1843. Please plan for a messy but fun morning; aprons will be provided. Thank you to Hancock Lumber for their support of this program and CMTM's MakerSpace.

Designed for young audiences, this weekly storytime invites guests to listen to a live reading of curated children’s books, with fun opportunities for audience participation.

Discover the Science for Tots series! This weekly program is specially designed for children ages 2-5 and their caregivers.

Circle-round for our month of shape-themed Science for Tots! During our three weeks of shape exploration, we will explore 2D and 3D shapes as we spray paint objects, play a shape scavenger hunt, and make a shape-filled cityscape.

During Science for Tots, we meet young children where they are by introducing them to STEM concepts like science, engineering, math, and the environment through rich sensory experiences. Sign up for one week or multiple weeks to meet new families and make new friends. Included with admission. Registration Required.

Note: Science for Tots requires the caregiver and child/children to attend the session together. Limited capacity to ensure materials and staff-to-participant ratio.

Come be a scientist! Observe and learn about the animals living in our tidepool and sandflat habitats. Get to know these creatures through observation and imaginative play. Then use your sense of touch to gain a deeper understanding of the animals and the places they inhabit.

Christopher Robin just moved to London from his house in the country, and misses his former home. Despite a new friend knocking on the door and asking him to play, Christopher Robin prefers to shut himself in and not play with anyone. His father A.A. Milne has another plan, and tells him the story of a bear named Winnie-the-Pooh living in the hundred acre woods. These stories of friendship and adventure inspire a change in perspective, an opportunity for play and a new friendship to bloom in the city.
