Homeschool Day Workshop: Tools Tell a Story

October 7, 2020 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am

What can tools tell us about the past? In this pre-packaged activity, you will look closely at photos of factory workers building WWII machinery and see if you can spot the tools they use! Then, enjoy a related craft (all materials and instructions included). For extra fun, join us for a live, interactive online workshop to explore the types of machines made in CT during WWII and take a virtual tour of our new exhibit Manufacturing Victory: The Arsenal of Democracy from the National WWII Museum.

This workshop is designed for children ages 5-7. Click here for more information and to register. Enrollment is limited and families must pre-register. Full, non-refundable payment via credit card or check must be made at the time of registration to reserve your child’s place.
