The South Dakota State Historical Society Museum in Pierre is switching its popular “make-and-take” Saturday Family Fun programs to “take-to-make” projects.
The first “Take-to-Make” Family Fun project for 2021 is a Clothespin Snowman Saturday, Jan. 9, from 10-11:30am CST. Visitors can pick up a bag with the materials and instructions at the Cultural Heritage Center, then take the project home to complete. In addition to the written instructions, project video instructions will be posted on the Museum’s website at https://history.sd.gov/museum/education.aspx.
To make sure there are enough bags to meet demand museum staff is requesting visitors only pick up one bag for each individual or family member planning to make a snowman. They reserve the right to limit the number of bags any one person or group can take.
