Kids Free Week at Hammond Castle Museum

Hammond Castle Museum is happy to welcome school age children for free during April school vacation week. From April 20-24, all children ages 0-12 are invited to take a self-guided tour for free with the purchase of an additional adult or senior ticket. 

 

In addition to a self-guided tour, guests will also be able to view our fourth annual Eric Pape fine art exhibition, featuring a significant collection of pen and ink illustrations by Eric Pape (1870 to 1938). Many of these works were recovered from Pape's locked studio decades after his death and have not been publicly exhibited for over a century. Included are illustrations originally created for The Arabian Nights, Tales of Wonder and Magnificence, Fairy Tales and Stories by Hans Christian Andersen, Victor Hugo's Notre Dame de Paris, Rip Van Winkle, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, and Shakespeare and The Heart of a Child by Gertrude Slaughter. 

 

Advance Reservations strongly encouraged. Museum Member savings apply.
