Educators' Night at the Museum

Join us for out third annual Educators' Night at the Museum! Get ready for an evening of fun and connection over history and refreshments! All educators are invited whether you teach in a public, private, or homeschool setting, or work in administration. You do not have to be in a history-related field to attend! Explore the museum if you haven't had a chance to visit recently, chat with our Youth Education Manager, Jordan Weaver, and learn about our free resources offered to educators! Make sure to sign in at the desk to earn 2 professional development hours.
