Scarecrows from Autumn, Apples & Acorns:
Photos from Stittsville's Villagefest:
What a busy weekend for the Museum! On Saturday we participated in Stittsville's Villagefest, and on Sunday we offered our monthly family activity program called Autumn, Apples & Acorns.
We couldn't have asked for better weather or company at Villagefest. At our booth we displayed reproductions of scrapbooks that the Museum has in its collection (featured here). We also had visitors put their handprint on two boards that will be display on the inside of the Museum's front door.
For Autumn, Apples & Acorns kids made three crafts to take home inside the Museum, then ventured outside to work in teams and create full size scarecrows to decorate the Museum's booth at the Richmond Fair from Sept 17-19, 2011.
Our next family activity day is Spooky Fall Crafts on Sunday October2, 2011. Email me for details or to register. We will also be in the Agricultural Building at the Richmond Fair this year, and have our next Yap & Yarn knitting circle meeting at the Museum on Sunday September 18 from 1-3.
