The McFaddin-Ward House Museum invites the community to its fourth annual SOAR Family Day on Sunday, March 1, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on the Museum’s grounds (1906 McFaddin Ave., Beaumont).
The admission-free, family-friendly event will feature a full afternoon of butterfly-related activities, including garden and butterfly related crafts, local artist Butterfly Art Garden display, butterfly ride-on bikes, butterfly performance artists, and Houston Museum of Natural Science Bugs on Wheels. You can also choose from multiple food trucks or picnic on the lawn as you enjoy live music by Ward, Pierce, and Steinman.
Community partners and exhibitors will include All Saints Episcopal School, Beaumont Botanical Gardens, Beaumont Heritage Society, Beaumont Independent School District, Magnolia Garden Club, Houston Audubon, Sea Rim State Park, Texas Master Naturalists – Sabine-Neches Chapter, Tyrrell Park Nature Center, Village Creek State Park, W.H. Stark House Museum, and more.
New this year, guests are invited to participate in an interactive community art project to paint butterfly wings for the SOAR Butterfly Art Garden. Volunteers from the Kind Kaygan Foundation will guide the activity, and the completed wings will be included in the local artist display throughout March. Adding to the festive springtime spirit, a vibrant outdoor installation of soaring butterflies will also be featured in the gardens all month long.
In case of inclement weather, SOAR Family Day will be cancelled.
