Inwood NYPL Partners with Bacchanalia for Musical Story Hour in the RING Garden
Family Story Hour in the Garden is an outdoor program for children ages 3–6 and their caregivers. Stories are shared with music, clapping, finger puppets, and more and aim to foster early literacy, reading, and language skills in young children.
Participants are encouraged to bring blankets or small chairs. Outdoor events are subject to cancellation due to inclement weather or poor air quality.
Learn how to assemble a suncatcher using a fun variety of materials. After you design and assemble your own original suncatcher in our 18th-Century Kitchen, bring it home to brighten your environment. Suncatchers, which may have originated as an artistic creation of Native American people, are captivating to look at and can bring a sense of peace and beauty to your surroundings. We’ll have items like colorful, translucent beads, upcycled materials, objects made from metal, and materials found in nature, like shells and small sticks. You can learn about the symbolism of some of these items as you craft your own suncatcher.
This program is free and open to the public. All materials will be provided on a first-come, first-served basis. Masks are optional inside the Museum.
It’s HOT! So why NOT, come inside where it’s COOL! And hear some S-T-O-R-I-E-S Morning Glory, told by April in August. What could be better. April Armstrong tells Summer fun themes for families and friends. Come and play!
