Toys and transit merchandise will be available and families are invited to participate in an interactive scavenger hunt, work on a communal “Build-A-City” art project and visit the Transit Museum’s “Education Depot” tent, where singing and storytelling will take place throughout the day.

Throughout the day, admission to the Transit Museum will be just $1. Inside the Museum, a temporary tattoo station will be available and Educators will display transit artifacts from the Museum’s collections as part of an interactive “Hands-On History” activity.
