Each year the Children's Museum of Tacoma kicks off the holiday season with our annual Gingerbread Jamboree. Held in the Hotel Murano's Bicentennial Pavilion, we provide everything you need to create a one-of-a-kind gingerbread house in a festive holiday setting. We need your assistance in helping participants at the event by assisting handing out and restocking frosting and candy, house building and check-in. There are two events held at the Hotel Murano; 11/26 & 11/27 each day has two sessions. Volunteer hours are 8-12:30 or 12:30-4:30.
This is a great opportunity for groups!

Description
Greentrike is a nonprofit that advocates for and models equitable access to playful experiences for children, youth, and families because play is essential for learning, joy, and a thriving community.
Greentrike powers museums, programs, and initiatives honoring children, youth, and families in Pierce County. Founded as the Children’s Museum of Tacoma in 1985, the organization later transitioned into Greentrike in 2019 after growth that made the organization more than a museum.
Today, Greentrike powers the Children’s Museums of Tacoma and at Joint Base Lewis-McChord, featuring a first-in-kind donation-based admission model known as Pay As You Will. Greentrike champions play through innovative programs like Preschool Powered by Play, Play to Learn, and Virtual Play to Learn. Greentrike carries out its mission of honoring children and youth through comprehensive initiatives. As of 2021, Greentrike serves as the Out-of-School Time Intermediary (OSTI) to deliver Expanded Learning Opportunities (ELO) across Pierce County.
