Stay tuned for 2023 Fall programming!

Little Learners will resume in the Fall on September 6, 2023!

Little Learners at Whitaker Center is an interactive STEAM program filled with lots of fun and hands on activities!

Tickets may be purchased at the Box Office within Whitaker Center.  Tickets will be available the morning of the program or in advance for the coming weeks.  

 Who needs a ticket?

Every child that is crawling or walking and participating in all or part of the program will need a ticket. If young children are being carried in a pack, sling, or will remain in the stroller, they do not need a ticket. 

Additionally, we realize many families have school-age children learning remotely at home. You are invited to purchase them a ticket and have them join in the program. Just keep in mind, the activities are planned for children ages two to six years old and all stations may not be developmentally appropriate for older children. 

Registration: 

Pre-registration is suggested, but not required.  Walk-ups will be permitted the day of the program until all program seats are filled.

Other Details: 

All participants must enter the Center at our Market Street entrance. 

A Whitaker Center staff member will meet participants at the door to admit them into the Center.

Whitaker Center follows CDC guidelines and recommendations.  At this time, masks are optional.
