Family Saturdays – Music is in Everything @ Washington State History Museum
Feb 15 @ 10:30 am – 11:30 am

Join us this winter for Family Saturdays! Explore how history connects us all during this hour-long storytime program designed for children ages 4 to 10 and their families.

This month’s Family Saturday story is Music is in Everything by Ziggy Marley, a book about music’s many forms. We’ll read the book together and spend time exploring how different people make music to share their culture in our exhibition, ‘Washington My Home.’ Then, you’ll have the chance to create your own instrument.
