Museum Makers

Have you ever wondered how a museum comes to life? This week, campers will go behind the scenes to see how collections are cared for, how exhibits are created, and what research happens every day. They visit laboratory and collection spaces, and meet the staff who shape the museum experience. Campers will participate in hands-on exhibit-inspired projects and learn about various museum sciences!

Who: Children entering grades K–5
Where: In person, at the Natural History Museum
When: Monday, August 3–Friday, August 7, 2026 | 9 am–3 pm
