CASTLE BUILDER
NOW UNTIL SEPTEMBER 3, 2018
Hear ye, hear ye! The Children's Museum is proud to present
Castle Builder! This exhibition will transport you to a kingdom where you become a castle builder, building your own toy castle brick by brick. Whatever your age or skill level you can construct castles, learn about real-world castles and their building secrets, and plan your ideal castle's defenses. You can even explore the inside of the royal castle, test your fortress designs with a catapult, and spot a dragon.
Castle Builder was produced by The Children's Museum of Indianapolis. Local tour sponsored by Johnston Group. Additional local support provided by Global Television, Len Dubois Trucking, Prairie Public, Qualico, Toromont CAT, and 103.1 Virgin Radio.
