“Flights of Fancy” Story Time

Every weekday in June 2019 | 11:00 am and 11:30 am

Join us for story time at the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center every weekday at 11:00 and 11:30 am. Museum staff will read stories for children about famous aviators, hot-air balloon flights, trips to Mars, the night sky, and winged creatures that soar through the skies. Afterwards, visitors ages two through eight-years-old will take part in a hands-on activity.

The April book is The Sun Is My Favorite Star by Frank Asch. Story time will take place in the James S. McDonnell Space Hangar.
