The Children's Museum of Virginia is on schedule to open on
Saturday, Dec. 10., at 221 High St. During an informal tour, city
employee Lillian Haythe tries out the static electricity display. At
right, an inflated globe is suspended over a column of air, one of
more than 60 interactive exhibits being set up. Admission will be $3
with group rates and other discounts available. Hours of operation
will be seven days a week 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. with extended hours
on Friday, when the museum will stay open until 9 p.m. Expansion
plans for the 27,000-square-foot facility will make it, at 60,000
square feet, the largest children's museum in the state.
