Ben Franklin is Back in the Bay Area!

The Printing Museum’s mobile “Museum on Wheels” program is back in the Bay Area for the next two weeks in May, visiting 16 schools from San Rafael to San Jose, even out to Tracy. The two hour school assembly features Ben Franklin and his working colonial printing shop, inspiring students about the power of books and printing to shape and change a life, even the world as Franklin demonstrated. Franklin is on hand to regale young minds with the wonders of science and his many inventions and discoveries, even having the students participate with experiments in electricity with his Static Generator. For details on the Printing Museum’s programs, visit the Museum’s website at www.printmuseum.org/education or look for Franklin’s printing shop on a freeway near you!
