beautiful colors, the weather hopefully cools off just a touch, the children head back to school, and the Children's Museum at Holyoke closes its doors for a short time to freshen itself up after a long and successful year of wear and tear. Our annual shutdown allows us to do some really important cosmetic repairs as well as work on fun changes to the roster of programs available, the schedule of events, and the exhibit floor for everyone to enjoy! We love all of our visitors so much- we have many regulars, and all of the staff appreciate the endless support and encouragement that you all bring when you visit! That is why we are very excited to be making so many improvements this year during shutdown- our list is long, and our goals are big. Wish us luck! And so, we will (fortunately or unfortunately, depending on your general outlook on life) be closed starting Monday, September 7th and will reopen Wednesday, September 30th. Because we are hoping to increase the number of activities and events here at the museum on a
daily basis, we are also looking for volunteers that would be interested in helping out. Any age welcome, and many schedules accomodated. Our only requirements are a love of children, a friendly demeanor, and a flexible attitude! Also, if you have any special interests or talents that could be passed along to visitors in a fun and interactive way, then this is the place for you! For more information, call Brenda at (413) 536-7048 ext. 101 or Dayna at (413) 536-7048 ext. 207. *Anyone over the age of 18 will have to pass CORI and SORI checks.*

September Shutdown! Ashley is closing out the year with a bang! On Friday, August 28th at 11:00 am and again at 1:00 pm, come learn about people and all the ways we are connected. We're Different, We're the Same by Bobbi Jane Kates is a jewel in the series of books published under the Sesame Street label. We will be making delicious pizza self-portraits to "illustrate" the lesson in this story!
