Peanuts Naturally Festivals
SCHOOL OR GRADE-WIDE
Turn your multi-purpose room or space into a hands-on art or science museum!
Each Peanuts Naturally Festival is a partnership between the Schulz Museum and host school or site. The Schulz Museum provides a staff member and all of the exhibits and materials for your students to explore hands-on art and science at your location. You provide appropriate space, tables, and 10-15 volunteers to facilitate each exhibit.
The Museum and school will work together to determine an appropriate schedule for each day based on your needs.
Choose from Two Festivals!
- PEANUTS NATURALLY ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE FESTIVAL (Grades K-6)
With up to 15 fun, nature-related interactive exhibits, students will explore and learn about the environment by making a water cycle bracelet, creating a constellation viewer, exploring animal and plant adaptation, using chemistry to launch rockets, excavating the past, and creating art, animation, and more.
- PEANUTS NATURALLY ART FESTIVAL (Grades K-2)
Explore art processes, materials, techniques, and projects with up to 15 hands-on activity stations based on the 2nd grade Common Core Art Standards. Students will experiment with animation, origami, watercolor, pointillism, architecture, collage, color mixing, and more.
