Drop-In Family Activities

Events and Activities

Adults and Families can drop in for special events and gallery activities that bring the collections to life. From storytime to gallery activity carts to big public events, there is always something new to discover at the New Jersey State Museum!

Ongoing

Look for Scavenger Hunts at the information desk upon arrival at the Museum. We have many themes to choose from so your family can make a game out of visiting all of the galleries for clues!

Look for in-gallery activities located throughout the Museum including a Natural History Journal, making your own state seal, decorating a Paleolithic pot and much more!

New storytime and gallery activity carts dates are added frequently. When you arrive at the Museum, ask the information desk for a schedule.

No activities are scheduled at this time, please check back for future activities.
