The South Dakota State Historical Society Museum will hold its next “take-to-make” Saturday Family Fun program tomorrow (March 6) at the Cultural Heritage Center in Pierre.
The hands-on project for March is a lion/lamb hanging plate. Visitors picking up the lion/lamb take-to-make project can make their own two-sided hanging paper plate with a lion on one side and a lamb on the other. Visitors pick up a bag with materials and instructions and take the project home to complete. In addition to the written instructions in the bag, video instructions are posted on the museum’s website at https://history.sd.gov/museum/education.aspx.
Lion/lamb bags can only be picked up tomorrow from 10-11:30am. To make sure there are enough bags to meet demand the museum reserves the right to limit the number of bags any one person or group can take.
The museum is open for visitors. A check-in station at the front door allows visitors to check their temperature and pick up a face mask and gloves if they wish to wear them while enjoying the galleries. Signage encourages visitors to maintain 6-foot social distancing and hand sanitizer stations are located throughout the museum.
There is now free admission to the museum for all South Dakota residents. Out-of-state adult visitors pay an $8 admission fee or $6 for out-of-state seniors 60 and older. Museum hours are 9 a.m.-4:30 p.m. CST Monday through Saturday, and 1-4:30 p.m. CST on Sundays and most holidays. Call 605-773-3458 for more information about exhibits, special events, and upcoming activities. Call 605-773-6000 for information about society membership.
