This special event series features fun, games, and songs led by talented artists from the Children’s Theatre. Each session will focus on highlighting a specific character strength, fostering a positive and engaging environment for children.
While the little ones immerse themselves in creative and educational activities, parents will have the opportunity to explore our museum. As an added bonus, families who attend the session will be offered free admission into Cincinnati Museum Center Children’s Museum for the day.

Step back in time to the 1940s, and revel in a celebration of freedom at the Liberation Ball.
Take over Cincinnati’s historic Union Terminal with us as we commemorate the 80th Anniversary of World War II’s ending. Join us for an immersive and festive night filled with live music, themed food, swing dancing, and interactive experiences spread throughout one of Cincinnati’s finest musums. During World War II, Union Terminal signified the beginning of a new life for many local Holocaust survivors – and it served as a vital transportation center for the soldiers who fought for freedom throughout the war.
The Liberation Ball will vividly recreate an annual event organized by Cincinnati’s Jewish Survivors of Nazism, the predecessor organization of the Holocaust & Humanity Center. That original ball was hosted as a celebration of life – a sentiment still worthy of toasting to today.
Your support of this event directly helps us reach more than 250,000 people annually through museum visitation and educational programming.
