Join us for a family friendly Aviation Workshop for Kids at the American Airpower Museum July 12th, 2025 from 12:00pm – 2:00pm. This special curated event hosted by our educational staff of docents is a fun introduction to aviation and aerodynamics for Children 5-12 years old. During this workshop kids will be introduced to the basics of flight with real airplanes all around them. They will discuss basic concepts of aerodynamics while building their own balsa wood toy glider/airplane guided by our staff. We will also have our mini-wind tunnel where the kids will be shown how their planes can fly! The group will then tour the museum and our very own flyable airplanes to then show them how airplanes go from the concept of small models like theirs to actual large and flyable examples of airplanes and their history.

This is a family friendly event and parents are free to enjoy the museum while their children are participating or if they’d like to participate in the event along with their kids! This event does require advance ticket purchase for the children to prepare materials for each Child, and to reserve a spot as the activity is limited to 20 participants. The cost of each ticket is $20.00 per child, and normal admission for adults based on rate eligibility. The proceeds of this event go directly to helping us preserve our hangar and aircraft collection to keep ’em flying for future generations to see!
