Overview of this year's show:
"The Show Must Go On" - Auditions are being held for an international touring company. The production attracts both veteran performers and young hopefuls, and the company’s outrageous director must decide who will be a part of this colorful revue. To complicate matters, the producer and the owner both want to flex their muscles. Somebody will die trying to get cast in this hilarious show within a show. Can you identify the villain?

The daily visit to the Children’s Museum to play with all of the wonderful exhibits is just an added bonus! Each camp is taught by a Highlands County teacher and is open to children that have finished kindergarten up through children that have finished fifth grade.

KIDS NIGHT OUT

Kids Night Out is a members only event open to children ages 3 - 11.  It is a program designed to let kids have a special time in the museum without their parents. They have the opportunity to play as much as they want with the different exhibits, interact with other children in the various areas and learn as they play. We also try to provide one "extra" activity each month such as crafts, games, or new types of exhibits. The children that participate must be potty trained.

The program runs ONE Friday night per month from 6:30 pm to 9:30 pm. Reservations are required, the cost is $15 per child, siblings are $10 per child. During the evening of play, we do serve a late snack, but not a full meal. Children should have dinner before they come. All children are expected to use party manners and obey the museum staff. When dropping off your child, you will be asked to fill out a form acknowledging the rules and filling in a number where you or a designated adult can be reached in case of emergency.

We ask that you not come back to pick up the children before 9:15. Arriving early causes other children to wonder where their parents are and they sometimes become anxious about being picked up.

RESERVATIONS ARE REQUIRED!

For more information or to make a reservation call the museum at 385-5437.
Remember -NO PARENTS ALLOWED!

This program is funded in part by the State of Florida, Department of State, Division of Cultural Affairs and the Florida Arts Council.
