The Marquette Maritime Museum, with the help of the U.P. Children’s Museum, is working to make the Maritime Museum a special place for families to learn about the rich tradition of the area’s maritime history and they need your help!
The Museums are looking for children, ages eight and up, with a guardian of their choice, to come and participate in “Maritime-o-Saurus”. During this process, the young designers will explore different maritime themes and examine the possibilities. The young consultants will then discuss possible exhibit changes with officials at the Maritime Museum. There will be yummy snacks, drinks and some fun gifts as well.
Dates of “Maritime-o-Saurus”:
May 11: meet at the Marquette Maritime Museum (9am-noon)
Explore downtown maritime spots on a car scavenger hunt
May 25: meet at the Marquette Maritime Museum (9am-noon)
Model and present new ideas for the Maritime Museum
June 8: Unveiling Party
See the ideas come to life and celebrate all the hard work the kids put in
Can’t make it to all the dates? No worries, they’ll find lots of ways for you to participate!!
