Description

Homeschool Day at the Waterhouse Residence & Carpenter Shop Museums: Be a Victorian Era Architect! What would it be like to build and design your home? At this homeschool day, students are invited to step back in time to the Victorian period when William H. Waterhouse built the Waterhouse Residence for his family! Visit the Carpenter Museum to see some of the antique tools Mr. Waterhouse used to build his home, then discover some of the architectural details in this historic residence on a Visual Survey Scavenger Hunt! Afterwards, take a seat right on the lawn and try drawing and designing your own Victorian period home just like an architect in the 1880s! You’ll round-out your day by making a silhouette on a frame, a popular way to capture the image of a person or animal during the Victorian Period. The cost is $10 per child and includes all the art supplies and $5 per chaperone. Afterwards, you’re invited to extend your outing with a picnic lunch at Lake Lily Park! Space is limited for students in grades K - 5 and especially chaperones. If chaperones are able, it would be best to bring multiple students due to the small capacity of this program. Please note that refunds are not available for cancellations. If you have any questions about our Home School Day, please feel free to contact our education team at [email protected].
