Amazing Castle Exhibit – Centennial

Humanities

The Amazing Castle™ transports children and adults to a magical place and time—within the castle’s stone walls there exists a happy and peaceful little community where every citizen has a special job to do. As visitors explore The Amazing Castle and its eight themed areas, they will encounter seven citizens who are part of the castle community. From entertaining to sewing, each citizen plays a special role. As they move through the castle, visitors can playfully explore ideas related to community life and experience the interconnectedness of friends, family and new acquaintances. Locally sponsored by the FMH Foundation, Rea Charitable Trust, Helen Greathouse Charitable Trust, MCPL Foundation, and the Carnegie Circle.

Finally, join Prince Ivan as his search for golden apples becomes a much grander adventure in the featured ballet, George Skibine’s The Firebird.
