Residents looking to participate in upcoming programs at Region of Waterloo Museums sites are encouraged to sign up early, as several popular workshops and day camps have already reached capacity for April 2026.

Four specific events across the region have sold out, highlighting a strong local demand for hands-on cultural and educational experiences. These include the Beaded Earring Workshop led by Haudenosaunee artisan Susan Hill and the Tea by the Grand event, both held at the historic McDougall Cottage in Cambridge. Other fully booked programs include the Dino Daze professional development day camp at the Ken Seiling Waterloo Region Museum and a pretzel making workshop at Schneider Haus.

The sold-out sessions offer a variety of activities for different age groups. The Dino Daze camp at the Ken Seiling Waterloo Region Museum provides day-long programming for children ages 5 to 11, while the pretzel making workshop at the 1816 Schneider Haus homestead is designed for participants aged 16 and older. At McDougall Cottage, the earring workshop features instruction from Susan Hill, a member of the Cayuga Nation with more than 45 years of experience in bead and leatherwork.

Families and individuals interested in future activities are advised to monitor the museum’s calendar and register promptly to secure spots. For questions regarding upcoming programming, residents can contact the museum system at 519-748-1914.
