Summer's winding down, but that means it's time to celebrate the start of a brand new school year. Head to LICM this Sunday for a hands-on workshop where kids can design and customize their very own pencil case — a functional keepsake that lets them show off their personal style on day one.

It's a fun, low-key craft that takes about ten minutes and is free with museum admission. A great way to cap off the summer and get kids excited about heading back to the classroom.

When: Sunday, August 30, 2026 · 11 AM – 1 PM
Where: Long Island Children's Museum, 11 Davis Ave., Garden City, NY
Cost: Free with museum admission
Note: Drop-in workshop. Ages 3+. Pencil case is yours to keep.
