March Scout Month
March 19–March 29, 2025 • Days & Times Vary • In Person • $45 per scout
Bring your scouts to the museum to get their hands dirty and earn a badge at AMOCA’s March Scout Workshops!
This program was developed to help reach individual badge requirements in art and pottery. Participants learn about the technical, historical, scientific, and aesthetic aspects of ceramics. Come as a group or sign up as an individual! At the conclusion of the workshop, scouts will qualify to receive their merit badges.
All materials and tools are provided. We recommend wearing clothes that can get a bit muddy or bringing your own apron.
Things to know:
- Parents and leaders work with their groups. Free admission for up to two chaperones per group is included. Scout groups that include ages 11 and under MUST be accompanied by at least 1 chaperone.
- AMOCA patches are available for purchase for $5 in the AMOCA Store.
- Artwork pick-up is April 15– June 1, 2025. Call 909-864-3146 or email education@amoca.org to schedule pick up during museum hours. Pick-up time may be subject to change due to kiln schedule and/or unforeseen circumstances.
