The Luzerne County Historical Society will host a series of drop-in crafts for children during the Fine Arts Fiesta, May 18-20, 2023. Join the LCHS’s Museum Manger Allyson Earl and Director of Operations Mark Riccetti Jr. in a series of activities that includes Native American Style beading and jewelry, a draw-your-own powder horn craft, and designing one’s own shopping bags. Coloring sheets from the LCHS’s own coloring book of historic sites will also be available. Each craft will also include educational instruction on the area’s Native American tribes, the Battle of Wyoming, and Downtown Department Stores respectively, and children will be able to take home what they create.
All crafts will be held free of charge, at the Society’s Museum building, behind the Osterhout Library at 69 South Franklin Street in Wilkes-Barre from 11am until 4pm on May 18th, 19th, and 20th. All crafting supplies will be provided and will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. The museum will also be open for self-guided tours. No reservations are required.
