EVENT
Preschool Summer Series – Bringing Water Home
July 28, 2022
10:00 am–10:45 am
Join Waterworks Museum education staff to learn how hard it is for people around the world without a waterworks system to get water. First, we will read “The Water Princess.” Then, we will try out different tools people use to get water to their homes when they don’t have access to a waterworks system. Finally, we will decorate our own water carrying mugs. This program is recommended for ages 3-6 and is free of charge, suggested donation $5. Face coverings are recommended but not required. Help us plan by reserving your free tickets in advance.

Moving Water: From Ancient Innovations to Modern Challenges
Ancient civilizations engineered water systems that sustained communities for thousands of years. This exhibition spotlights six places that innovated ways to deliver, and control water for human use. It also looks at how climate change is impacting all of those places, forcing public officials to consider new ways to keep the water flowing.
