Come to the Museum after Saturday's Holiday Parade

Come out and enjoy the downtown Kalamazoo holiday parade on Saturday, Nov. 10 at 11 a.m. After the parade, follow Kalamazoo Valley Community College’s student-athlete Cougar Cruiser to the Kalamazoo Valley Museum for free hands-on activities for children.

No matter what holiday you celebrate, turn on the creativity as you decorate dog leashes, wooden ornaments, banners, games, jewelry, picture frames, cups, visors and hats, puppets, shoe laces, potholders, and aprons to make personalized gifts. Draw freehand or use one of the museum's many stencils to design gifts. This free event runs from noon to 4 p.m. at the Kalamazoo Valley Museum.
