Once Upon A Time…
Exploring the World of Fairy Tales
February 5 – April 4

Again, again! For a limited time, children can revisit their favorite fairytale exhibit at The Magic House and once again step into the pages of some of their favorite fairy tales, literally! Once Upon a Time… Exploring the World of Fairy Tales is a unique and educational exhibit focusing on the power and significance of fairy tales throughout history and from around the world. From an African jungle to a giant’s castle, visitors explore larger-than-life pages of seven favorite fairy tales. Visitors enter the exhibit via a magical portal into a fabulous storybook kingdom where they’ll learn the meaning and history of tales they’ve known all their lives and others that may be new to them.

Visitors really get into the story as they cross a wooden bridge in Anansi and the Talking Melon, play a harpsichord in Beauty and the Beast, try on a glass
slipper in Cinderella, work at a cobblers bench in
The Elves and the Shoemaker, climb a beanstalk in Jack and the Beanstalk, catch a wolf in Lon Po Po and crawl through a mole’s hole in Thumbelina. This nationally traveling exhibit created by The Magic House is a real page-turner.

Super Kids Save the World Exhibit
April 22 – December 31

It’s saving electricity with a single flip of a light switch. It’s the power to turn an old tablecloth into a superhero cape and the ability to repair something instead of throwing it away after a crash, boom, bam. It's fighting pollution and saving the world one aluminum can at a time. It's ordinary kids making a difference. It’s Super Kids Save the World!

Super Kids Save the World is a hands-on traveling exhibit created by The Magic House in partnership with the Crawford Taylor Foundation and Enterprise Rent-A-Car Family that gives kids (and their parents) the power to go green! Designed with “green” materials and practices, this super exhibit gives kids real superhero training starting with the four R's: Reduce, Reuse, Repair, Recycle!

Super Kids Save the World is based on the British children's book, George Saves the World by Lunchtime written by Jo Readman and illustrated by Ley Honor Roberts. Developed by the Eden Project, an educational charity dedicated to showing the importance of taking care of our world, this book features an ordinary family, who in the course of their day save the world simply by making responsible choices. George, Flora and Grandpa demonstrate that by taking simple steps, families can become eco-friendly superheroes in their own communities.

Super Kids Save the World will begin its world saving mission on April 22 in honor of Earth Day and will be at The Magic House through December 31.
