Learn how to become a powerful sorcerer during Wizard Training Break Week at The Strong museum from Saturday, April 4 through Sunday, April 12. Design a one-of-a-kind wand and explore magical spells. Test your wizardry knowledge with a scavenger hunt, dress the part by creating wizard accessories, and more. 
Then use your newfound knowledge in The Lost World of Dragons exhibit. Take pictures with moving dragons and discover the mythology that surrounds them. Enter “Smaug’s Lair” and view his piles of gold and treasures. Explore the forge and alchemy laboratory, draw your own dragon, and complete a series of mix-and-match magnetic puzzles.
All Wizard Training Break Week activities are included with general museum admission fees. Programs underwritten by Delta Air Lines, the official airline of The Strong. The Lost World of Dragons remains on view through May 10. Presented in the Fidelis Care Gallery. The exhibit is developed by Stage Nine Exhibitions and distributed by Exhibits Development Group.
