Families interested in crafts and recycling can visit Raleigh's City Museum on August 9 for the Scrap Exchange Family Fun Day. The event runs from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and is designed for children and families. Partnering with the Durham Scrap Exchange, the event will offer free arts and crafts materials made from recycled items.
The City of Raleigh Museum will host a free event for children ages 3 to 14, offering hands-on arts and crafts activities using recycled materials. According to the City of Raleigh, the event includes "messy fun," so families are encouraged to dress children in clothes that can get dirty. Staff will be available to help guide kids through the activities.
This event offers a fun and educational experience focused on recycling and sustainability. Hosted by the City of Raleigh Museum in partnership with the Scrap Exchange, children will learn how to turn old materials into new crafts. The event is free to attend and is designed for families looking to spend time together without cost.
Free craft materials will be provided, and children can participate in hands-on activities that highlight the value of reusing everyday items. More details, including the location and age guidelines, are available on the City of Raleigh’s website.
