Toddler Time: Keeping Warm in Winter

It’s important to pick the right clothes to keep warm in winter.  Join us as we read The Hat by Jan Brett and explore some of Sweden’s cold weather clothing. Toddlers will have fun playing interactive games based on the animal characters from the book and enjoy a winter snack.

Toddler Time is a monthly program, every third Tuesday of the Month. Cost is $5 per child or free for Museum Household Members. There is no charge for accompanying caregivers. No pre-registration required, pay at the door.

Hearth and Heritage at the ASHM

Erika Larsen Lavuu American Swedish Historical Museum

You can tie nearly everything that the American Swedish Historical Museum does to the word ‘home.’ Our founder sought to celebrate the Swedes who had made America their new home, we preserve and interpret the artifacts used within our ancestors’ homes, and we remind Swedes and Scandinavians that, among friends and family at our cultural celebrations, they should consider the Museum as another home.

1919-An Empowering Year

Woman in Black American Swedish Historical Museum

2018 has been a year of momentous elections in Sweden and America. As newly-elected representatives decide upon issues of immigration, social policies, and globalism, we reflect upon the histories of progressivism and human rights that have pushed both countries onto the world stage today.
