In honor of The Amazing Castle™, come make Castle Creations in The Studio.
Check out a list of our upcoming events below!
The Grinch is leaving his cave on Mount Crumpit and coming to the BFK! Put on your holiday or Grinch-inspired outfits and join us on Friday, December 12 from 5 – 7pm for pizza, Grinch-themed activities, after-hours playtime, storytimes, and plenty of opportunities to meet the Grinch. This event costs $5 for members and $15 for non-members.
We also have an opportunity to meet the Grinch in a lower-sensory environment, including dimmer lighting, no music, and certain exhibits turned off, on Wednesday, December 10 from 5 – 7pm. This event is FREE for families in the autism community.
Join us on Thursday, December 18 from 4:30 – 6:30pm to make a nutritious, holiday-inspired meal from scratch with Chef Justin of Sustainable Kitchens! Then, you’ll get to take home some of the tools and ingredients you need to recreate that meal on your own.
You’ll also get to enjoy playtime in the museum before and after the workshop.
Family Meal Workshop is available to members only. This event is free, but registration is required.
To celebrate no school over winter break, we’ll feature a new theme at the museum every day! Check out our exciting line-up of themes below:
Welcome 2026 at the BFK! On Wednesday, December 31 from 9am – 4pm, we’re hosting our annual BFK New Year event, complete with themed activities all day long. Create your own musical instruments and noisemakers in The Studio, join lively parades throughout the museum, and get ready for confetti-filled countdowns and ball drops!
This event is free with the paid price of general admission or a BFK membership. No pre-registration is required.
