Tomorrow is Pirate Adventure Day at the Brandywine River Museum. Admission is free until noon. Admission on Sunday mornings is always free, except for the holiday season. Here is some info on the event. If you time it right, you can go and see the other Wyeths, and just about the time your kids are getting bored, go join the Pirate Adventure!

 

Pirate Adventure Family Day

November 6, starts at 11:30 a.m.

Discover a world of pirate adventure!  Create a pirate hat and colorful parrot, listen to pirate tales and go on a treasure-hunt in the special exhibition, N. C. Wyeth’s Treasure Island: Classic Illustrations for a Classic Tale.  At 1:30 p.m., see the movie Treasure Planet (PG, 2002), featuring the voices of David Hyde Pierce, Martin Short and Emma Thompson. This animated Disney production brings Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island into the future, as young Jim Hawkins sets off across the universe in search of riches. The film’s animators were influenced by N. C. Wyeth’s illustrations and incorporated aspects of his style into the movie’s backgrounds and settings.    Free for members and included with Museum admission.  Arrive before noon to take advantage of the museum’s Free Sunday Mornings from 9:30 to noon.
