## About

The Lightner Museum's What's a Hobby series page for November 14 invites children ages 5 to 10 to explore candle making with a museum educator. They walk parts of the museum, make beeswax candles to take home, and hear why bees matter. A parent must stay the whole hour. The printed fee is $5 per child, and household members are free. Pre-registration is required. Families arrive five minutes early and meet the educator in the lobby. Printed time is 10:00 to 11:00 a.m. If a guardian stays to tour afterward, that guardian's gallery admission is a separate discounted $12, and children under 11 enter the galleries free. The page title and the registration heading say beeswax candles, while a bold subhead on the same page says What's A Hobby? Stacked Sculptures. The date line says Saturday, November 14, without a year. The calendar widget says Nov 14 2026, JSON-LD is 2026-11-14, and November 14, 2026, is a Saturday. Because the activity name conflicts, the listing needs confirmation even though the date machinery agrees.
