Museum Presents Free Kids' Corner and Crafternoons: Storytime and Nature Walk Programs
for children on the first and third Saturdays of each month. On Saturday, June 4, 2022, the museum
will host a kids’ story time: “Books and Bananas,” with readings of stories centered around food,
from 1:00 - 3:00pm. After the readings, kids will prepare a banana recipe. Families may also visit
the new exhibit, “Savoring the Sunshine State: Florida Cookbooks.”
On Saturday, June 18, 2022, families can arrive at 10:00am to be led on a nature walk across the

own. Adult supervision and pre-registration are required for all Kids’ Corner and
Crafternoons events. To register, call (352) 341-6428.
Families who visit may want to plan for extra time to explore temporary and permanent museum
exhibits. The museum gift shop hosts a wide array of Elvis souvenirs and interesting books ranging
from children’s genres, historical fiction, and local history. Visitors will also be
able to enjoy a farmer’s market on the first and third Saturdays in Downtown Inverness at The
Depot.
