Homeschool Day: Preservation and Conservation
Advertisement
Homeschool students and teachers are invited to spend a special day at Körner’s Folly, becoming historians and conservationists for the day! This interactive program explores how museums preserve and conserve both indoor environments and outdoor objects, and how historians research and examine collection items to better understand and share the past.
Participants will enjoy self-guided tours of the 22-room house museum, historic yard games and toys, hands-on learning stations, and a special behind-the-scenes scavenger hunt. In the John & Bobbie Wolfe Visitor Center, homeschoolers will discover how museum staff preserve, restore, and display historic objects through crafts and interactive activities.
Students will play Artifact Detective, examining objects to identify materials and determine how they should be preserved, and will create their own Memory Box to explore what items they would save for future generations. Homeschoolers can bring in photos of their friends and family, or things they love to add to their box!
This Homeschool Day offers a fun, educational experience filled with discovery, creativity, and hands-on learning.
Last house entry time is at 1:00 PM. Plan to come early or stay later after your tour. Activities can be done in any order! Families are welcome to bring lunch to eat picnic-style on our grounds or in the John and Bobbie Wolfe Visitors Center Community Room.
Tickets are nonrefundable, but it may be possible to reschedule your visit to a later date.
For more information about this program, contact Brittany Hendley, Community Engagement Manager at [email protected], or call our offices at 336-996-7922.
