RIHS Museums Participating in Nickelodeon’s Our World: Worldwide Day of Play

Both Rhode Island Historical Society museums, The Museum of Work & Culture, and The John Brown House Museum, will be participating in Our World: Worldwide Day of Play on September 27, 2025, 10am – 4pm. As a day dedicated to joyful learning through play, this event focuses on getting kids and their families up, out, and experiencing the magic of play.

The Museum of Work and Cultures’ Open House will feature Museum Scavenger Hunts, a Choose Your Own Adventure Tour, an Escape the Mill Obstacle Course, and more! 

The John Brown House Museums’ Open House will feature historic games, craft-making, and can become history detectives in a museum scavenger hunt.
Children and families can attend the open houses free of charge by mentioning they are there for the Worldwide Day of Play at the front desk. 

Our World: Worldwide Day of Play is part of Nickelodeon’s Our World global initiative to inspire kids and provide them with tools to activate their individual and collective agency. As part of a network of over 1,450 museums participating in Museums for All, a national access initiative that is managed by the Association of Children’s Museums, the Museum of Work and Culture is a vital collaborator in the Our World: Worldwide Day of Play. For a list of all participating Our World: Worldwide Day of Play events and more information about the initiative, please visit www.childrensmuseums.org/dayofplay.
