Bruce ConsTRUCKS: A Public Celebration of the Campaign for the New Bruce


*The event has already taken place on this date: Sun, 09/08/2019
On Sunday, September 8, 12:00 – 4:00 pm, the Bruce Museum will present Bruce ConsTRUCKS, a day of free family fun to celebrate the start of the Museum’s exciting new renovation and construction project.

Please help us keep this calendar up to date! If this activity is sold out, canceled, or otherwise needs alteration, email mindy@kidsoutandabout.com so we can update it immediately. If you have a question about the activity itself, please contact the organization administrator listed below.

Open to the entire community, Bruce ConsTRUCKS will feature construction trucks and emergency response vehicles for kids to explore, an array of children’s crafts and other hands-on activities, a visit by the “Bubble Bus,” live performances by the popular children’s band Songs for Seeds, food and ice cream trucks, and more. Plus, with the Museum’s art galleries temporarily closing for renovation, we’re inviting Museum members and the public to get creative on our gallery walls. Draw a sketch, write us a note, express yourself before the renovation work begins!

 

Families with young children will be drawn not only to the construction trucks, but also to the hands-on craft activities stationed alongside the vehicles and inside the Museum. Staffed by the Museum’s Educators and volunteers, the activities include:

  • Truck Sculptures: Children ages 2 to 10 can design their very own truck from paper
    and then fill it up it with soft materials to create a “puffy truck” sculpture.
  • Tools of the Trade: With this craft activity, kids can make their own tool belts that they
    can wear home.
  • Paint Chip Collages: Pick out your favorite palette of color to your own collage out of
    paint swatches.
  • Design Time: Building like the best artists and engineers with our playful Imagination
    Playground blocks.
  • Truck Finders: A hands-on sensory activity for toddlers.
  • Build a Museum: We’ll set you up with materials so you can build your own New Bruce!
