The Wayne County Historical Museum is pleased to announce Around the World with Julia Meek-Gaar. The founder of the Wayne County Historical Museum Julie Meek-Gaar loved to travel the world and bring home artifacts so the children of Wayne County could learn about different cultures. Julia loved sharing her artifacts so much that on August 13th 1929, she purchased the old Hicksite Quaker Meeting House which still houses our museum today! In celebration of all things Julie, YOUR WCHM is happy to announce Around the World with Julia Meek-Gaar which celebrates the many accomplishments of our wonderful founder. Around the World with Julia Meek- Gaar will feature activities around the world including folding origami, creating mosaics, and making maracas. Each child will receive a passport and will receive a stamp from all the different places that they visit. Treats from around the world will be available visit. Visitors will also get a change to meet Shetland ponies from Sunrise Therapeutic Riding Center. **Admission: Normal Museum Admission
