Tinkerfest - At The Doseum
*The event has already taken place on this date: Sat, 11/08/2025
Join us for our sixth annual Tinkerfest, a day dedicated to curiosity, creativity, and hands-on learning! During this exciting event, guests will “enroll” in fun, interactive trade schools throughout The DoSeum to explore skills like plumbing, electrical work, roofing, and carpentry.
After completing a trade school, participants will have the opportunity to apply what they’ve learned by contributing to a kid-sized framed home at the center of the museum:
"Licensed Plumbers" will install pipes and fixtures.
Electricians will run wires through the studs and connect light switches.
Roofers will add shingles to the roof.
Carpenters will build out the inner walls.
Please help us keep this calendar up to date! If this activity is sold out, canceled, or otherwise needs alteration, email mindy@kidsoutandabout.com so we can update it immediately. If you have a question about the activity itself, please contact the organization administrator listed below.
By the end of the day, a community of more than 1,500 guests will have worked together to build a home—piece by piece.
Will the house actually function? Absolutely not.
Will our guests leave feeling empowered, inspired, and excited by what they’ve learned? Without a doubt.
This event is included with general admission.
