Toy trains will click-clack down the tracks, snow dogs will spin on the ice rink and Behringer-Crawford Museum will be aglow with lights, music and the holiday spirit when the 2019 Holiday Traditions at BCM, sponsored by Central Bank, opens on Saturday, November 16.
This is the 28th year for BCM’s Holiday Toy Trains display with its 250 feet of track and more than 30 guest-activated displays. Guests can also enjoy Wahoo's Winter Wonderland, a kid-size, animated exhibit based on the children's book by Kenton Hills author Diana Grady, “The Holiday Adventures of Wiley Wahoo & Me,” plus special Polar Express and Wahoo readings, Santa visits, Charles Dickens Victorian Village display, holiday concerts and more.
On Sunday afternoons between Thanksgiving and Christmas, local children’s librarians will read aloud from Grady’s book and the Christmas classic, “Polar Express.” The readings will take place at 2 p.m. on Dec. 1, 8, 15 and 22. Holiday finery or comfy PJs are encouraged for the story hours, which include crafts, refreshments and a visit from Santa. Activities are included with museum admission, but space is limited, so reservations are required by the preceding Friday. Register at education@bcmuseum.org or call (859) 491-4003.
