At Turning Pages, visitors can explore the art of the book during mini-workshops on traditional hand paper making, paste paper, stone lithography printing, letterpress printing and book binding.

Throughout the day, staff, friends and board members will share their favorite books, including hosting public readings of their favorite children’s books. Visitors will also have a chance to win wonderful book-related prizes through drawings and special children’s activities.

Sponsors and friends of the Museum will serve or display their product, information, artwork and crafts throughout the day. Children can find exciting clues and facts about the Museum through a scavenger hunt.
