The Magic House is hosting a First Responder Celebration to say thanks to the firefighters and police officers who work hard to keep our communities safe. Families are invited to stop by the museum's Kirkwood Safety Town exhibit located in the backyard of The Magic House to meet with firefighters and police officers and thank them for their service. First responders will be on hand to talk to kids, take photos and teach important safety lessons.
