My Family Story - Girl Scout Brownie Badge Program

Want to see what Americans kept in their homes 200 years ago? The DAR Museum collection includes furniture, dishes, wall art, textiles, and a few weird odds and ends. Just like your home (but our stuff is probably older).If you're in Washington D.C., stop by and see us!

DAR Museum Old

Use the DAR Museum collections to explore how family histories are collected and preserved. Share stories about your family with other Brownies and play a game to see how stories change over time. Then, write about your day in a brand-new diary and create a family tree to tell your family story!
This program results in earning the "My Family Story" badge, which is included in the registration price.  
*Please note: The event will be canceled and all orders refunded if 8 participants are not registered by the week prior*
