Description

 

Join us for our Hands-On History Spring Friday Classes hosted at El Pueblo History Museum from January 16 - May 1, 2026.

Hands-On History provides safe, engaging learning opportunities for elementary school students on Fridays when kids are not in school.

Class Themes:

Art Adventures

Students will immerse themselves in art history as they learn about a variety of historic and contemporary artists. Join us as we explore new art techniques and experiment with different materials as we create various types of art in this fun and exciting environment.

Festive Folklórico Dance

 

Celebrate the vibrant traditions, culture, and history of Mexico through folklórico dance! This high-energy movement class will introduce students to the vibrant world of traditional Mexican folk dance through the exploration of regional styles, footwork, and choreography.

 

Digging Through Time

Grab your trowel—it’s time to dig! Join us as we become junior archaeologists, uncover hidden treasures, and explore Pueblo’s own archaeological site. Every discovery tells a story as we travel back in time to bring history to life!

 

Pueblo Pioneers

Step back in time and discover what life was like for the early pioneers of Colorado! Students will learn about how people lived and survived in the olden days by playing interactive games and experimenting with self-sustaining skills, and other traditional homesteading activities.

 

NOTE ABOUT PROGRAM DATES: Classes will be held every Friday throughout the duration of the semester with the exception of March 27, 2026 which coincides with Spring Break.
