Mark Twain’s Birthday Bash!!!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year – that’s right, Mark Twain’s birthday! This year, the Mark Twain Boyhood Home & Museum is celebrating once again with a birthday bash and inviting the entire community to take part. Tom and Becky will have crafts and games for kids in the Museum Gallery auditorium on the 2nd floor from 2 – 4 pm. Kids can make Christmas cards for local nursing homes with Tom and Becky, play pin the moustache on Mark Twain, decorate birthday party hats, bookmarks, create a mustache on a stick, and more. An adult needs to stay with children while they play games and do crafts. This year, there will also be activities for adults wanting to celebrate Mark Twain’s birthday! We are partnering with many organizations to make the day memorable, including the Hannibal Free Public Library, Hannibal Parks and Recreation, local authors, and more. No RSVP is necessary, and the more the merrier! As always, the Mark Twain Boyhood Home & Museum campus is free for Hannibal residents, so you can enjoy the self-guided tour of the museum’s eight buildings, or simply come to the Museum Gallery for the birthday events.
