The third Saturday's program is a new Waltham Museum initiative begun with funding from the Waltham Cultural Council supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council. The arts and culture represent one of the areas in our society where people can come together to share an experience even if they see the world in different ways. The important thing is not that we agree about the experience that we share, but that we consider it worthwhile sharing an experience at all.
This monthly series of multidisciplinary cultural activities and educational programs will inspire and engage you. Come make a new connection! Join us once a month on the 3rd Saturday at 3 pm inside the Waltham Museum.
This is a free program for all Waltham residents. A fun way to discover or rediscover us. The Waltham Museum is handicap accessible and welcoming to all people.
