Did you know the second Sunday of June is National Children’s Day? Celebrate the day with Toledo Shares the Stage!
Toledo Shares the Stage is a family-friendly community event presented by Live Arts Toledo in recognition of the unofficial National Children’s Day. The event brings together local arts organizations, galleries, educators, and community partners to celebrate youth creativity while connecting families with arts experiences and community resources.
The Frogtown Players will be presenting two story times with crafts, one from 12:00-12:45 PM and the other from 1:00-1:45 PM. Storytellers and educators, Angela Cooney and Amy Spaulding-Heuring, will share two wonderful books, each with their own art project, to captivate children of all ages. Please bring the entire family and join the Frogtown Players as we celebrate National Children’s Day with Live Arts Toledo and our local, vibrant arts community.

Calling all Lil’ Scupper’s!
Join us on May 21 at 11 a.m. for a fin-tastic morning in partnership with the Frogtown Players, a Northwest Ohio educational theatre company dedicated to inspiring young audiences through storytelling and live performance.
Do you believe in mermaids? Meet Tallulah — the Mermaid of the Great Lakes! Unlike ocean mermaids, Tallulah has never found her special gemstone — the one that makes her tail sparkle. When Turtle encourages her to search the Great Lakes, Tallulah bravely sets off on a journey, even as others question whether mermaids belong in lakes. Together, we’ll enjoy a lively read-aloud of Tallulah: The Mermaid of the Great Lakes by Denise Brennan-Nelson, followed by a hands-on craft where children can create their own sparkly mermaid tail to take home.
Lil’ Scupper’s Kids Club programs are designed especially for children ages 0–6, but all ages are welcome. This event is included with regular museum admission. Registration required. National Museum of the Great Lakes members and Museums for All participants (families receiving SNAP benefits) receive free admission.
