Join us on First Fridays for Family Art & Story Hour! Click here to RSVP and add it to your calendar. Join us at the Maguire Art Museum for a morning of art, music, and storytelling in the galleries! This month, we’re reading stories about berries and fruit and making our own berry sweet artworks! Stick around for a Nature Walk designed for little ones through the Barnes Arboretum with the Wynnefield Library! Free and open to the public! Ideal for toddlers and pre–K; all ages welcome. Attendees have access to the “Cozy Collection” children’s gallery and the 12-acre Barnes Arboretum! Please note that the museum is only accessible from Lapsley Ln via City Ave. The museum is not accessible from Latch’s Ln.

We invite kids ages 6–10 and their families to imagine what kindness means to them by making their own interactive storybook on iPad. They’ll draw, record sounds, add fun 3D shapes, and more as they dive into the world of creative storytelling. Devices will be provided. For sessions with amplified sound, hearing loop technology is available on request. 541 Park City Center Lancaster, PA 17601

Come join us for this family-favorite First Friday as we celebrate the agricultural community in Oxford! We are so grateful to our presenting sponsor for this event: Hostetter Grain. The roads will be closed in downtown for this First Friday as 70+ tractors parade through town and then park along Third Street. We will have vendors, food trucks, and, of course, our amazing downtown businesses. FREE PARKING for this event thanks to American Mushroom. This year we are pleased to have Cedar Knoll once again sponsor the Straw Bale Throwing Contest along Locust Street. Start lifting weights now to get into tip-top shape! We wanna see those biceps put to the test. We also have a new event we are adding this year -- spouse calling! Think you've got what it takes to get your better half's attention from across the field? Put your lungs and your love to the test in our Spouse Calling Contest! Whether you've perfected a signature holler over decades of marriage or you're just naturally gifted at making someone come running, this is your moment to shine. Contestants will step up to the mic and let loose their best, most creative call for their spouse — and our judges (and the crowd!) will decide whose call is most likely to actually work. Expect plenty of laughs! All are welcome to compete: married, partnered, or just really loud. As a special addition for America's 250th, we will be having Ben Franklin stop by and read the Declaration of Independence. Kids can learn about this important document and get their photo taken next to an oversized Declaration of Independence and Bill of Rights. Finally, we will have LIVE MUSIC by DENISE AND MAX in the Neff Parking Lot!
