In celebration of the Shiloh Museum’s Ozark Home, Beyond the Frame exhibit, we are hosting a series of events featuring toys and leisure in partnership with several public libraries in our mission area. The first one is from 10 to noon Thursday, June 15, at the St. Paul Public Library, 145 5th St, St Paul, AR 72760. We invite you to play with old-fashioned toys and explore how these toys may have helped develop skills needed for various chores around an 1800s household in the Ozarks. The events will include making simple toys to take home.
