Families are invited to enjoy the changing seasons and a fun time together in a uniquely 19th century atmosphere at “Spring Fling” on Saturday, April 10, at the Doak House Museum.
“Spring Fling” will be filled with activities for all ages from 10 a.m. until 1 p.m. at the museum on the Tusculum College campus. The event is free and open to the public.

Storytelling, games from the 19th century and face painting are among the other activities planned for the event.
