6/19/2012 | Missouri State Museum | Jefferson City, MO
Handmade quilts hanging on clotheslines were a common sight in the mid-1800s, but some quilts are thought to have been signs pointing out the Underground Railroad to enslaved people. On June 19, you will get a chance to design and make your own quilt pattern.
From June 5 through Oct. 30, meet at the Missouri State Museum each Tuesday to explore Missouri’s cultural and natural resources through a special tour or program. These programs are geared toward children ages 6-12 years, but people of any age are welcome to attend. Programs will take place in the museum classroom, which is located in the History Hall (east wing).
Event time: 2 p.m. - 2:45 p.m.
