We’re Building A Giant Dragon Puppet and We Need Your Help! And More!
Take advantage of a week of Lunar New Year Activities at the Holter Museum and ExplorationWorks! Families, teens, and interested community members are invited to the Holter Jan 23 – 26 from 3:30-5:45 to take part in constructing a Giant Dragon Puppet to be paraded in celebration of 2012 as part of The Year of the Dragon Family Day at the Holter Museum on Saturday, January 28 and ExplorationWorks on Sunday, January 29. Beginning at 10:30 am on January 24th – January 27th, families of young children can gather in Little Sky Country at ExplorationWorks for a variety of activities designed for the creative, young mind. Activities will include creating hand-held dragon puppets, paper lanterns, coins inspired by those of the Orient and a tabletop fireworks display—no explosives necessary!
