The Owls Head Transportation Museum (OHTM) staff and volunteers have planned a day full of holiday fun with demonstrations, programs, and crafts.

Santa has made arrangements to be on site at OHTM from 10:00 am to 1 pm, so children will have plenty of time to meet and share a moment with him. There will also be a letter writing station, where children can write their holiday wish lists and deposit them for North Pole delivery.           

Peruse the exhibits as holiday music drifts through the halls. Keep an eye out for crafting tables and demonstrations of some of the museum's largest artifacts! Visit the  “Family STEM Center” on site, featuring interactive learning toys and make-and-take crafts!  Don’t miss the 25% discount in the museum store, for stocking stuffers, gifts and membership specials, and more!           

Although the festivities end at 1pm, the museum will remain open until 4pm, allowing plenty of time to see anything you might have missed!  So, mark your calendars, tell your friends, and we look forward to seeing you Dec. 3 for OHTM’s Holidays at the Museum!

The 48’ exhibit is equipped with a 24-person screening room that showcases the different aspects of the WAA mission through video. To the front of the exhibit there are three interactive computers to showcase locations, trucking supporters, and general wreath sponsorship questions. Also, in the front is an education wall of information on the different areas of WAA and where the mission will be going in years to come.
