This event has already passed.

This Election Day, The Magic House is inviting kids to take part in the electoral process at a Kids Special Election on Tuesday, November 8 from 9:30 am to 5:30 pm in the museum's Star-Spangled Center.

It's not just politics as usual as kids step into the voting booth and cast their ballot for President and Governor.

All pint-sized voters will receive a special "I voted at The Magic House" sticker and can further show their civic pride by participating in some all-American crafts.

Kids will also have the opportunity to find out more about government and American history by exploring the museum's Star-Spangled Center, an interactive civic education exhibit featuring a domed Rotunda, a Legislative Chamber, a Courtroom and a replica Oval Office - including an interactive exhibit where kids can see when they would be eligible to run for office.  

Voting and Election Day activities are free with museum admission.

At The Magic House, 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.
