Join us throughout February, as we celebrate Black History Month with renowned theatrical performances, a display of important figures in Black history envisioned as comic book heroes by local artist Shawn Dunwoody, and a museum-wide quest highlighting artifacts related to Black history and play. On February 6, at noon and 2 p.m., witness Bright Star Touring Theatre, a national professional touring theatre company based in Asheville, NC, visiting the museum with their acclaimed shows African Folktales and Freedom Songs.
Become a champion for play and help make a difference in the lives of the children and families who play, learn, and grow with The Strong.
When children pretend, they’re using their imaginations to move beyond the bounds of reality. A stick can be a magic wand. A sock can be a puppet. A small child can be a superhero.
Visit a highly interactive, collections-based museum devoted to the history and exploration of play.
