Art in the Firehouse
Fire-Related Crafts
Art has always had a place in the firehouse, and we are happy to carry on that tradition with field trips and group visits today! As you are reaching out to schedule your field trip or group visit, please include your choice of craft below to add to your day at the museum! All fire-related crafts are available year-round and will be facilitated by a museum staff member. All supplies for crafts are included in $2 add on cost per student.
