Kansas Day Celebration at the Geary County Historical Museum on Saturday attracted nearly 100 people, many of them families, that visited the museum to take part in the event. Along with touring the museum's three floors of exhibits, visitors also tried out pioneer children's chores, created mixed media artwork about the American Bison, planted their own sunflower and decorated a birthday cupcake, all to celebrate Kansas's 161st birthday.
The event was also a kick off event for a new Saturday program series: S.T.E.A.M. Saturdays, which GCHS will be hosting the third Saturday of every month. Each month will have themed activities to help create an interactive learning environment. The next event will be held Saturday, February 19th from 1-4pm and will focus on Black inventors in honor of Black History Month.
