Here at the Booth Western Art Museum, we strive to educate children in a fun, positive atmosphere. Once a month we have what we call, “Children’s Saturday” where we have special exhibits open for children to tour and learn new and interesting facts. Our next “Children’s Saturday” will be on February 14, 2009, from 10:00am-Noon. On this day children will get a chance to explore the history of the 9th and 10th U.S. Cavalry, and discover why the Native Americans called them Buffalo Soldiers. Learn about the vital role they played during the Indian Wars and in escorting settlers headed west. At 11:00am, Ms. Keven Lynch and two storytellers will perform “What is a Buffalo Soldier?” based on Ms. Lynch’s book. Go to our website, http://www.boothmuseum.org/, and look at our calendar to get the date and times of our upcoming Children’s Saturday. Don’t forget to visit Sagebrush Ranch where children can explore the West while having fun!
