Arlington Heights Park District is running a drop-in craft where families can make a custom street sign tied to the museum exhibit “What’s in a Name?” (ahpd.org) The park district’s April 2026 events calendar lists “Make Your Own Street Sign” for Sunday, March 29, 2026, from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. It says families should register one person per family and that all supplies are included. (ahpd.org) The listing describes the project as a family name street sign and says participants can use the current exhibit for design ideas. The event appears in the Arlington Heights Park District calendar alongside other seasonal family activities. (ahpd.org) The craft is part of a museum program, not a bring-your-own-materials workshop. The event page says the sign-making session draws directly from “What’s in a Name?,” linking the activity to the Arlington Heights Historical Museum’s current exhibit programming. (ahpd.org) The Arlington Heights Park District uses both its main events calendar and recurring event pages to post these family programs. A separate series page shows “Make Your Own Street Sign” as a repeat event, with earlier listings in April 2025 and June 2025. (ahpd.org) The district’s broader program guide says residents can use online listings to find seasonal activities and registration details. That matters for this event because the park district’s calendar is where the date, time, and registration instructions are published. (ahpd.org) The Arlington Ridge Center, or ARC, is one of the district’s community facilities at 660 N. Ridge Ave. in Arlington Heights. The park district lists regular weekend hours there and notes that some holidays operate on modified schedules. (ahpd.org) For families interested in the craft, the practical step is simple: check the event listing for the exact date posted online, register one person for the household, and drop in during the two-hour window.
