The museum is hosting a special Valentine craft activity where visitors will be able to make their own cards. Attendance to this event is free, and light refreshments will be provided. Bring the family and try your hand at crafting some lace-trimmed cards with poetry and paper roses — how they would have looked in the 1800s! The event will take place in the Museum’s Grand Hall.

Also note: there is now a temporary exhibit of Valentine’s Day cards up in the Grand Hall that will continue through March. The display features historical Valentines from the Museum’s archives, dating back to the early 1900s.
