About the Event

The Mini Motors workshop series is a hands-on adventure for your kids (ages 7-11) to explore the world of cars. Join us on the first Saturday every other month from 9:00 am to 10:00 am for a journey filled with experiments, cool art projects, and a chance to explore the awesome car collection at the museum. The workshop is free with the purchase of museum admission.

This month’s theme is Cars + Inventions on Saturday, October 04 from 9:00 am to 10:00 am.  Discover how inventions have shaped the cars we see today, then put on your inventor's hat and create your very own car-inspired gadget. Who knows? Your invention might just be the next big thing!
