Storytime at the Lightner
Saturday, January 24, 2026
10:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m.
Ages: 3 – 6 years old
Join a Lightner Educator for Storytime at the Lightner as we read Winter Dance by Marion Dane Bauer, illustrated by Richard Jones. Following the book reading, a hands-on craft exploring animal habitats will take place.
This program is for children ages 3-6 years old. Guardians must remain with their children for the duration of the program.
Storytime at the Lightner is a free workshop, but pre-registration is required. The maximum number of spaces available is 10. Participants should arrive and check in at the Radzinski Garden located behind the building near the parking lot. The museum educator will meet them there 5 minutes before the program starts. In the event of inclement weather, this program will be moved indoors to the Education Center.
Guardians interested in exploring the Lightner after the program will receive a discounted admission price of $12. Children under the age of 11 receive free admission to the Lightner Museum galleries.
Storytime at the Lightner is a family program that focuses on literacy and creativity. It uses the Lightner Museum’s Education Center or Garden to read, explore, and have fun. Each Storytime at the Lightner includes a themed book read-aloud and a hands-on activity that pairs with an aspect of the book.
