Join us for a delicious homeschool day inspired by the Collier Museum at Government Center’s special exhibit, From Piccadilly Pub to The Pewter Mug: A Local’s Dining Experience! We’ll be exploring different traditional cooking techniques and foods that people in Collier County have been eating for thousands of years. The Calusa lived on the natural resources of our region’s bays and estuaries, while the early pioneers applied traditional cooking and food preservation methods to the foods of their new found home. All areas that will be represented in this culinary journey to the past. We are partnering with our friends from Collier County 4-H to bring a variety of cooking demonstrations. Students will also be able to get hands-on with a variety of different cooking skills, from homemade butter making to pickling. While RSVP is not required, it is encouraged to ensure enough supplies for students. Call our Curator of Education at 239-252-8242 or go to CollierMuseums.com/Events to RSVP online.Important note: This is a drop-in style event! It is not required to arrive at 10AM, nor stay for the full 3 hours. About Collier County Museums Homeschool Days:Three times a year, Collier County Museums hosts a day where homeschoolers of all ages can come for free educational programming geared toward their specific age groups. We will have preschool, elementary, and middle/early high school appropriate activities based on that Homeschool Day’s theme. With a focus on combining history and STEM (we like to call it SHTEM!), Collier County Museums aims to provide your homeschooler with a holistic approach to learning about our region’s history. Homeschool Days cycle through our five museums, so your family has an opportunity to get to know all of them!
