Bring Your Kids to the Witte Museum for Adventure Club!

By Allison Kantner

From the dawn of time to the innovations of science, the Witte has something for every child. The majority of exhibits in the Witte revolve around a proud Texan theme, but there is much more to this museum than that: these exhibits are the paths that people have chosen to express their time in history. There is art, there is science, there is history, and there are adventures of enlightenment awaiting every visitor. So bring the history buffs, the lively, the creative, the little cowboys and cowgirls and the mad scientists of your classroom or household and witness the molding of individuals through the experience.

LinkNeed an event to get this journey started? Check out Adventure Club for this summer. Each weeklong summer camp has a theme of Amazon Adventure or Expedition of San Antonio River, with hands-on activities for the kids in grades 1-5. You’ll be sneaking in a little education while the kids think they’re just having the adventure of the summer!

Visit the Witte’s website for more information on the Adventure Club and other activities and events the Witte has to offer young minds.

"I went to the Witte Museum today with my mother, little sister, and older brother. I'm fourteen years old and have been on countless field trips to this museum. But it never ceases to teach me new things. This is one of the most amazing museums. And while it's no Smithsonian (I've been there too) I do love this museum and all it has to offer." -Witte Website Commenter

The Witte Museum is one of theFund's 27 affiliates.
