National Toy Hall of Fame Celebration at The Strong — Meet the Newest Inductees, Nov 7-8

Rochester has its own Hall of Fame — and this weekend, it’s welcoming new members. The Strong National Museum of Play will celebrate the newest inductees into the National Toy Hall of Fame on Saturday and Sunday, November 7-8, with a full day of hands-on activities, displays, and chances to discover what just earned a permanent place in American play history. The National Toy Hall of Fame has been recognizing culturally significant toys since 1998, and each year’s inductees spark the kind of conversation only toys can start: Where were you when you first played with that?

Date: Saturday and Sunday, November 7-8, 2026 Time: 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM Location: The Strong National Museum of Play, One Manhattan Square, Rochester, NY Cost: Included with museum admission

Visit The Strong any time between 11am and 3pm on Saturday or Sunday. No special registration required beyond regular museum admission. Plan your visit at museumofplay.org.
