Join us for a fun night of science for the whole family!
Move throughout the exhibit halls and our pollinator garden and visit hands-on, interactive stations that engage you and your children in science activities. Stations will include:
Raves for REPTILES! - Learn more about what makes snakes, lizards, turtles and other reptiles unique and visit with some real, live ones up close!
Nature Journaling - Decorate the cover of your own nature journal (provided, one per visitor) and then try your hand at sketching some flowers, insects and more in our pollinator garden!
Exploring Cetacean Photo Identification - Learn about how marine mammal researchers tell individual dolphins and whales apart and how individual humpback whales get their names. Then create your own whale tail pattern and give it a name!
Pollinators are the Bomb! - Make your own seed bombs containing native pollinator plant seeds to take home and help you create important habitat for bees, butterflies and more in your own yard!
SORT IT OUT Science Game - Use natural objects like shells, rocks, seeds, etc. to investigate the scientific practice of classification.
Nature Stories - Relax to readings of specially selected nature-inspired storybooks.
“Watershed Mindfulness” Activities with Clean Ocean Action - Expand your understanding of your connectedness to our vast network of waterways that ultimately leads to the ocean by participating in two activities about nonpoint source pollution, or people pollution; how each of us contributes to ocean pollution; and how we can help to stop it.
PLUS - Explore our science exhibits, go on a Science Center scavenger hunt and more!
