Join The National Museum of Toys and Miniatures on Tuesday, June 30, 2-3PM, for Story Connections, a FREE, specialized program for adults experiencing memory loss and their caregivers. Participants can view the Museum’s collections, engage in thoughtful discussions, and create meaningful connections.
On June 30, explore “Little Ted: An 'Almost' True Story.” After discovering Ted, a small stuffed bear, in the window of an antique shop, Karen Mormon took him on her travels to see the world. Mormon recorded Ted’s adventures through photos, postcards, and stories, including the addition of his wife Alice and son Theo. Join us to discuss the adventures and stories of Ted, Alice, and Theo.
