Art, music, drama, nature activities . . . and much more! Each day will include outdoor time and time to enjoy the Museum's interactive exhibits!

Education Outreach Programs
Young Learners (preschool and kindergarten)
Discover how much fun the worlds of art
and science can be with these programs designed to meet the
developmental stages of young learners in preschool and kindergarten!
Science Roadshow (first grade and up)
What better way to learn about science than by conducting experiments? These traveling programs will challenge your child's mind with exciting hands-on activities. Your children will be having so much fun that they won't even realize they are learning! We believe in active participation and inquiry-based education, we design our programs with national and state curriculum standards, and we teach children that science is all around them.
Hands on learning... that's what we do!
Judy's Art Studio
The Museum is pleased to host Judith Murray Smith’s art classes, which emphasize a supportive work environment and a love of art. For more information or to register, contact Judy at (781) 344-0004, or (508) 941-2369 or

First time students complete a series of drawings designed to lead from black and white contour drawing to pencil shading to working in color with pastels and acrylics. Repeat students are encouraged to explore acrylics on canvas. Students are guided at his/her own level in this “working atmosphere” that promotes the love of art. Older students interested in art careers may have portfolio guidance. Proper “art openings” are held to show off finished work.
