About Wenham Wednesdays

Wenham Museum is excited to announce a new drop-off program for Hamilton-Wenham Elementary students, for early release Wednesdays.

Every Wednesday during the school year, Wenham Wednesdays will feature activities such as craft projects, board games, LEGO building, paper crafts, and more – plus time for students to explore the museum galleries with friends.
