In conjunction with our current exhibition, Greenwich During the Revolutionary War: A Frontier Town on the Front Line, the Time Travelers KidStudio returns through March 2025! Step back in time and learn how kids lived in Greenwich 250 years ago. Every Wednesday and Saturday afternoon will feature a new guided craft or activity inspired by the colonial era. Children up to age 12 are welcome to attend with an accompanying adult.

Music was important during the Revolutionary War, especially for the military. Drums were a very popular instrument for soldiers. Drummers would keep a steady beat to provide a rhythm for marching as military units traveled on foot from colony to colony for battle. It was like having music on a long car ride today. Beat to the rhythm of your own drum that you make in this session of our KidStudio!
