Gibbes Manners Camp

by Sara

T-Minus one week until our Petite Protocol camp at The Gibbes Museum of Art!

Next week, June 21-25, is for kids ages 4 to 6; the June 28 – July 2 session the following week will be for all 7-12 year olds. While the camp will cover basic etiquette – introductions, thank you notes, table manners, etc – we will also focus on international manners and how to behave in a museum. The 1.5 hour daily camp (12:00 – 1:30) will include time for lunch, activities, and a lot of interactive learning!

There are still a few spaces open for both weeks, so head on over to the Gibbes website and register today!

Petite Protocol This Saturday!

table manners

Our second Petite Protocol session at The Charleston Museum is already upon us!

Saturday’s lesson – for both age groups – will focus on what every parent longs for their children to have, especially in front of company: table manners!

From 9:00 – 10:30 AM our 4-6 year olds will learn American style table manners, as well as how to politely eat finger foods. No more stuffing goldfish by the handfuls into their mouths! Afterwards, from 11:00 AM – 12:30 PM, our 7-12 year olds will learn American and Continental styles of table manners in addition to finger food tutorials. Both sessions include fun and interactive manner lessons, activities, and a snack.

Classes are located at The Charleston Museum, and are $20 for members, $25 for non-members. Visit The Charleston Museum’s website for more information, or to RSVP. Both classes only have a few more seats available, so sign up quick!
