Dear fellow Hanoverians:
Looking for new and fun things to do with children when the weather is
still cold and crummy?
Look no farther than the John Curtis Free Library – where you’ll find
a slew of passes to excellent cultural organizations – from the New
England Aquarium, to the Children’s Museum, to Harvard’s Museum of
Natural History.
If you have never been, consider visiting Harvard’s Museum of Natural
History which is chalk full of incredible, family-friendly exhibits
including Native American artifacts, pre-historic fossils (including a
42-foot mounted Kronosaurus), and innumerable taxidermy animals and
birds from Africa, New England, and the world at large among other
excellent permanent and temporary exhibits. Visit
http://www.hmnh.harvard.edu/
for more information and check out the passes in person or on-line at
the John Curtis Free Library, http://www.hanovermass.com/library/
. Passes to the Harvard Museum of Natural History are brought to you
by the Friends of the John Curtis Free Library.
Coming to the Harvard Museum of Natural History this March: Their
Annual Family Festival:
Join the museum for their biggest family event of the year: “Stories
through Time”, on Saturday, March 9, 9:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. invites
you to explore our past with faculty, students, and curators from
Harvard’s science and cultural museums. Learn about how our human
ancestors lived. Play a 3,000-year-old game. Visualize changes in
season and climate over the past 30 years. With more than 15 tables of
hands-on activities and scientific specimens targeted at different
ages, the whole family will enjoy this event. Free event parking in
the 52 Oxford Street garage is available.
For more information about the terrific organization that provides the
museum passes, the Friends of the John Curtis Library, please contact
