The Smithsonian’s National Postal Museum is celebrating baseball season and its bilingual baseball exhibit, “Baseball, America’s Home Run” with a free family festival on Saturday.
Whether you are a baseball fan or not, this festival for all ages in Washington, D.C., extends beyond sports lovers, with a diverse array of activities ranging from crafts and read-alouds to live performances from the bilingual children’s music duo 123 Andrés.
Interpreters will be on hand to provide American Sign Language (ASL) translations for children who are deaf or hard of hearing for the book readings.
The event also invites people to learn more about baseball with activity stations managed by National Postal Museum partners National Museum of African American History & Culture and National Portrait Gallery.
The festival runs from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. June 22, with 30-minutes performances by 123 Andrés scheduled at 11:30 a.m., 1 p.m. and 2:30 p.m.
