Enroll a team of up to 6 players for the Escape Room "Clue: Robbery at the Museum." This is a 90-minute Escape Room challenge. Difficulty: 3/5

It should have been simple-you were hired to steal six priceless exhibits from the museum then get out and get paid. But someone in your crew is a traitor! One of you already stole a target exhibit and replaced it with a fake one, and they triggered security to boot. You need to get out before the guards find you and figure out who betrayed you, what they stole, and where they hid it.

Making art is a fun way to express your creativity with various mediums. This is a small group; if you have no experience, this is the place to start. Participants may work on the topics they like or follow mini-lessons taught by Ellen Flentge, curator of education.

January’s theme is Winter Creak. Participants can create a meandering creek in a forest covered with snow and calming blue shadows from inspirational images or imagine it as they go.
Colors fade away in the distance and it would be a nice environment where you may add winter wildlife.
