Workshop: Heroines of History

Expand

In celebration of Women’s History Month, The Charleston Museum will host a Heroines of History children’s workshop about the women who shaped Charleston’s history on Friday, March 15th from 2 pm to 4 pm.

Participants will be taken on a guided tour of the Museum emphasizing women and their roles in Charleston’s past, hear about the women who journeyed across the ocean to colonial Charleston, decorate a cutlass fit for a fearsome pirate, learn to bandage wounds like nurses in the Civil War, and use dye which was first cultivated in Charleston by a young woman.

Museum Workshops offer kids a hands-on, fun learning opportunity to better understand history and natural history. Included in Museum workshops are a lesson on the topic and fun activities. Workshops are recommended for children ages 6 to 12.

Guests can purchase tickets online here. Reservations are required. For more information call 843-722-2996 ext. 236.
