The Hands On Children’s Museum is hosting its popular “Noon” Year’s Eve Party, Monday, December 31 from 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. Families can count down to the New Year without staying up until midnight as the Museum offers ball drops on the hour starting at 10 a.m.
In the spirit of a Times Square New Year’s Eve celebration, there will be special costumed guests, music, dancing, and parades throughout the Museum. Young visitors are encouraged to come dressed as a character from one of their favorite storybooks. The event will feature whimsical art and science activities including the chance to make a Harry Potter Wand, create a Good Night Moon bubble print, explore engineering and pneumatics with the Three Little Pigs, see live chemistry demos and make Oobleck with “Dr. Seuss.”
The Noon Year’s Eve Party is proudly presented by Twin Star Credit Union. The event is free for Museum members and is included in the price of admission for non-members. Pre-registration is not required. For more information visit https://www.hocm.org/noon-years-eve/.
