Join the BMHA’s Program of Discovery for Kids and Learn More about Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow
Kelso museum Curator, Judi Allen, has created a series of Saturday morning programs for the youth of our community. The Kelso Kids Club is an outgrowth of the Adult Lyceum series which has been part of the Kelso House programming for more than 40 years. Kelso Kids Club will take place on the first Saturday of each month, October through April, from 10:00 to 11:30 a.m. The programs are geared for children from first through fifth grades and will include a variety of topics and activities. Fees will be required for some events that will be held in the McCormick Heritage Meeting room in the basement of the Kelso House or in the Michael Cable Barn. Reservations are preferred and are due the Wednesday before each scheduled program in order to insure appropriate supervision and supplies are available.
Please call the Kelso House office at 330-673-1058 to make a reservation or email us at kelsohouse1@aol.com. Be sure to include participant’s name, phone number, and grade. Parents are welcome to stay. Those who prefer to leave during the event will be asked to sign their child in and out.
