Join us on November 10th from 11-12 pm for Second Saturdays – Need for Speed! Thrill-seekers of all ages are welcome to learn about the history of Fredericksburg’s Soap Box Derby and participate in their very own race. Participants will build their very own mini derby car by taking inspiration from FAM’s collections. Not only will the participants be able to take home their mini derby car, but they will also have a chance to race it!
Second Saturdays at the Museum is a regularly scheduled family program that includes hands-on activities, make-and-take crafts, and an opportunity to explore the Museum’s exhibits. The program is held on the second Saturday of each month from 11-12 pm, to allow the visitor to discover something new within the FAM’s collection and explore a new piece of Fredericksburg’s history each month. Second Saturdays is a FREE program and registration is not required, but appreciated. For additional information on this program, please contact Theresa Cramer, [email protected], or 540-371-3037, ext. 138.
