Children's museum advocates to meet in Blacksburg
A grassroots drive to establish a regional children's museum in downtown Blacksburg will hold an open meeting Thursday (Jan. 29, 2009) at 7 p.m. at the Blacksburg Library at 200 Miller St.
According to the group's Facebook profile, organizers are looking for ideas, volunteers, board members and a building in which to locate the museum.
Our idea is to create a place for children to learn and explore through hands-on experiences. The museum will include stimulating exhibits, special events, and live demonstrations that explore and instill a sense of discovery about music, science, technology, art, and regional heritage, the profile states.
Interested folks can attend the meeting, send e-mail to blacksburgchildrensmuseum@gmail.com, or join the Facebook group.
