Discover new train-themed concepts and apply them to your own invention\, art project\, machine or game. Workshops are multidisciplinary and include hands-on projects\, guided activities\, tours and demonstrations. \nThe drop-in program goes from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM. Every student is given a personalized introduction and detailed instructions before embarking on open-ended activities. A guided presentation or tour every half hour delves deeper into the topic of each workshop. \nRecommended for elementary students ages 5 to 12 and their caregivers. It is included in Museum admission and free for Museum members. Registration is not required.
