Afterschool Preschool program!
The Westport Historical Society announces a new History and Crafts Fall Program that combines age-appropriate learning about our town in the 1800s AND related crafts. Join us in October for one or more sessions of our new after school preschool programs, designed and instructed by our WHS Educational Director, Hilary Gibson. All programs take place in Westport:
· In the old cobblestone barn – at WHS (25 Avery Place)
- At the old one-room schoolhouse – The Adams Academy (Morningside Ave. North)
- In the old Wheeler House kitchen – at WHS (25 Avery Place)
Important:
· Pick just one or several dates and programs
· Each of the nine (9) programs will offer a different craft activity.
· Therefore, whether you come for one or more sessions, there will always be something new. Stories, too!!!
Programs run from 1:30-2:30pm and supplies are provided. A parent or appropriate caregiver must accompany each child/family. The cost is $10 per child per class or $9 per child if a WHS member.
