Museum Explorers: Leather Workers
Join us on Friday, September 25th, at 10:30am for the second installment of our study of the exhibit “Tools of the Trade: Building the West by Hand.” This month’s Museum Explorers program focuses on the leather-working area of the exhibit. Students will learn about the trade, the tools used and the products made. The project this month will be leather stamped bookmarks!

Art Hour - Clay Ghosts
It’s starting to get spooky here at the Doss! Join us for October’s Art Hour for kids: Clay Ghost Tealights! Each participant will use air-dry clay to create their own boo-tiful floating ghost. Once dry, they can be placed over a battery-operated tealight candle for a Halloween-y ambiance! This month’s class will be held Thursday, October 8th from 4:30-5:30pm in Heritage Hall.
Art Hour is a free, monthly creative program provided by the Doss which encourages your student to express themselves through the arts!
