From June 8 - September 8, WEEBLES Coast to Coast will whisk guests away on a 50-state adventure across the country, all without ever leaving the Museum. Loaded with more than 70 hands-on activities, the exhibit explores the geography, history and uniqueness of the 50 United States. Children can pretend to power a riverboat down the Mississippi, hit a home run at Fenway Park, snorkel in Hawaii and many more!

The 2,500 sq. ft. exhibit is designed for children ages 4 – 10. Hands-on activities present opportunities for children to build cognitive and social skills, be physically active, curious and imaginative, and express themselves through music, movement and art.
