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 10:00AM to 1:00PM, 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! 

Guests are encouraged to bring a non-perishable item to the museum for this event - with this donation they will receive a ticket to redeem at the gift shop for an extra 10% off the storewide holiday sale!

So, mark your calendars, tell your friends, and we look forward to seeing you on December 8th for OHTM’s Holidays at the Museum!
