Join The National Museum of Toys and Miniatures on Tuesday, January 27, 2-3PM, for Story Connections, a FREE, specialized program for adults experiencing memory loss and their caregivers. Participants can explore the Museum’s collections, engage in thoughtful discussions, and create meaningful connections.
This month, explore “Chairs in Miniature.” The Museum has over 1,000 miniature chairs in its collection. Focusing on a select group, attendees are invited to discuss the meaning, function, and style of chairs as well as the stories they tell. The conversation in the Museum’s galleries will be followed by a hands-on activity and refreshments.
Learn more and register at https://toyandminiaturemuseum.org/events/story-connections/ or call Emma Kitteringham, Museum Educator, Volunteers and Group Tours, at 816.235.8011.
Story Connections is offered in partnership with the Heart of America Chapter of The Alzheimer’s Association and The I'm Still Here Foundation.
