Red, White and Blue Day at Creative Discovery Museum

Creative Discovery Museum is celebrating the birthday of America with its annual Red, White and Blue Day on Monday. 

The event will allow guests to participate in several patriotic-themed crafts and activities that teach children about the reason the 4th of July is celebrated every year. 

“Red, White and Blue Day gives families a fun way to celebrate while exploring the historical reason for the holiday,” said Jayne Griffin, Ed. D., director of education at Creative Discovery Museum. “This event is one of the few opportunities in our community for children and adults to participate in activities that go beyond our normal traditions and customs for the holiday.” 

Guests will gather at 2 p.m. in the Atrium for a reading of the Declaration of Independence by Thomas Jefferson and Uncle Sam characters, followed by child-friendly “bubblewrap” fireworks and a balloon drop. 

Immediately following those activities, a 21-Diet Coke geyser salute will honor the military men and women who have served the country along with “Happy Birthday America” cake and ice cream outside on the Museum Plaza. 

As a thank you to those who protect and serve America, active duty military will receive free admission to the Museum on July 4 for their families with presentation of a military ID (good for up to four guests). 

All activities are included with admission to the Museum. For more information, call 756-2738, or visit the Museum’s website at www.cdmfun.org.
