Family Days

Date: First Saturday of the Month (September - May)

Time: 10:00AM – 2:00PM

 

Join the Wyoming State Museum for our fun (and FREE) Family Day events! Each month we celebrate a different topic, from science and wildlife to history and culture. Gather your little learners and head over to the museum to play games, make crafts, and enjoy tons of engaging educational activities! 

You can expect nine amazing Family Days each year, running the first Saturday of the month from September through May. You can also join us for popular special events like Dino Day in the summer and Halloween at the Museum in the fall! We'll be using June, July, and August to meet you at community gatherings like Super Day, Frontier Days, and Plein Air in the Parks.

Family Days are generously sponsored by Scheels in Johnstown, CO. Thanks to their support, these events are always free and open to everyone!

HOME ON THE RANGE: May 4, 10 am - 2 pm

Head west to the days of homesteaders and pioneers and learn about these people of the prairie that made their “home on the range.”

Those that settled on the prairie had to be resourceful and use what they could find in the landscape around them. From creating their own clothes, building their own homes, and creating something out of the little around them, these people made their homes in wide open spaces. Learn about these people and their amazing lives through crafts, games, and educational talks from the Wyoming State Museum and our partners!
