Members decorate mini pumpkins and brew colorful potions in a morning of magic and creativity at The DoSeum.
The DoSeum is hosting Member Mornings: Pumpkins and Potions on Thursday, October 15, from 9:00 AM to 10:30 AM. It's a member-only session, so if you've got a membership, this is one of those early-morning slots you can bring the kids to before the day really gets moving.
The theme is right in the title. The museum describes this time of year as "the most frightful time of the year," and they're leaning into the spooky season with two hands-on activities. First, kids get to decorate their own mini pumpkin, and then they brew their own bubbling, colorful potion. It's a morning of magic and creativity, and the potion part is exactly what it sounds like—colorful, bubbling, and meant for kids to mix up themselves. If you've got little ones who love the messy, imaginative side of Halloween, this is their kind of thing.
For a bit of context on the venue, The DoSeum is the name and location of the San Antonio Children's Museum, which opened at 2800 Broadway St. back in June 2015. They chose the name because they wanted to chart a new future: a transformed facility where "doing" ignites critical thinking and problem-solving—the 21st-century skills they believe children need most to succeed in school and in life. They position themselves as a dynamic educational and cultural resource, a gathering place, an idea incubator, and a laboratory for community collaboration. This Member Morning fits right into that "doing" philosophy—less about watching and more about getting your hands dirty with paint and potions.
