The Coos History Museum is inviting the public to join us October 8th, 2022 for Second Saturday. Admission is free to the museum all day from 10am-5pm. Children and families are invited to participate in our Explorer’s Club program from 11am-2pm, featuring crafts and activities related to the “Green Crab Invasion.” Explorer’s Club in 2022 is all about encouraging local families to join us on our free Second Saturday and at Explorer’s Club for fun and educational activities for children. Activities for explorers follow the topic for our adult lecture series program called First Tuesday Talks. Explorer’s Club now has the option of registration so that parents and children may receive some additional benefits, which are listed below.
