The Search Committee at The Children's Museum at Holyoke is pleased to announce the hiring of a new Executive Director! Her name is marypaz, and she will be coming to us from Commerce, Texas, where she has been the Executive Director at the Northeast Texas Children's Museum for the past three years. We are VERY excited to have her and all of her experience, knowledge and enthusiasm! She will begin employment July 1, 2009, and we hope with this new and very qualified source of direction, we will be able to offer more and better services and programs for all of our visitors as we reassess, reorganize, and grow as a team. So we hope the excitement is contagious, as this milestone is certainly one to celebrate!
In other news: Ashley Barton, our education staff member who is responsible for our preschool Think and Play Series, will be away this week. Our Friday, May 29th Think and Play Series will still be held at its usual times (11:00 am and 1:00 pm) and will be led by Amanda Ebel. This week's read-aloud is Sheila Rae the Brave by Kevin Henkes. This beloved children's author writes to empower young children with his stories, and the title of this book says it all! Our adorable "scaredy cat" craft-of-the-day will stand as a reminder that everyone can be brave just like Sheila Rae! Remember: this program is free with paid admission!
