Don your cape and mask and get creative!

We’re excited to bring back our popular Superhero Studio, an annual summer favorite! Don your cape and mask or just bring along your superpowers and get creative!

What can you do in the Superhero Studio?
There are several ways you and your kids can be creative superheroes this summer…

Drop in activities
Drop in any time and create a one-of-a-kind superhero character using the lightbox to mix and match different parts. Kids can also play around in the secret superhero hideout and use their imaginations to act out a story of their own.   IMG_6700.JPG
