Now open seven days a week, the Springfield Museums are ready to embrace the season with activities and highlights throughout the weeks of Summer at the Museums, happening July 7 through August 15. Free with museum admission.
The Museums are elevating the 2025 summer experience with opportunities to gather, tinker, and jam as a community. Family-friendly exhibitions and hands-on explorations in the Cat’s Corner, Hasbro Games Art Discovery Center, and Spark!Lab are available daily for visitor enjoyment.
“Summer at the Museums is such a fun time of year! Explore four interactive special exhibits, become an inventor or artist in one of our hands-on educational spaces, and play out on the Quadrangle lawn” says Larissa Murray, Director of Education at the Springfield Museums.
Then, from Wednesday to Friday, visitors can participate in a variety of special program offerings. On Wednesdays, dance and jam to performances from a variety of local acts. On Thursdays, kids can get crafty with the Museum School for Tinker Thursdays, available at an additional charge. Lastly, on Fridays, welcome the weekend with bubbles, a performance by the Toe Jam Puppet Band, and other featured activities.
“We have so much happening this summer, from our Wednesday and Friday performances to our daily drop in spaces and exhibits. There are so many reasons to visit the Springfield Museums this summer,” exclaims Abby Garner, Family Engagement Coordinator.
All exhibits and activities are FREE with museum admission unless noted otherwise.
Summer at the Museums is sponsored by Baystate Health, Berkshire Bank, Country Bank, Florence Bank, Eversource, M&T Bank; and Horace A Moses Charitable Trust, N.A., Bank of America, Trustee.
