Play it forward for Hands-on House

As a Board Member, I’m proud to support a space that belongs to Lancaster’s families. Hands-on House is an essential third space for early learning in our community---a place where creativity, connection, and curiosity come alive. 

Through exhibits like The Little Valley Farm I’ve witnessed how play helps children build social-emotional skills, STEM habits of mind, and a lifelong love of learning.

I’ve set a personal goal to raise $500.00 during the Extra Give to support the museum's mission and vision for the next generation. 

Whether it's been an interaction with one of our educators, a special family memory, or trips to the museum just feel like a natural part of your routine...we hope that if Hands-on House has touched your life you will consider supporting us in the Extra Give!
