Butterfly Release

Tuesday, August 12 at 11:30 AM

Calling all citizen scientists and nature lovers! Come learn about monarch caterpillars and see a couple up close. Stick around for an optional craft (while supplies last) and a release of a newly hatched monarch butterfly into nature. Children of all ages are welcome along with parents and caregivers.

Pee Wee Playdate

Join us for an open playtime for children from 0-35 months accompanied by an adult. Toys are selected with age and safety guidelines in mind and are suitable for young children. We clean up together at 11:15!

Shrinky Dinks

Shrinky dinks are plastic charms you can create yourself! For this craft, draw with marker on special plastic sheets. When heated in the oven, they will shrink to a third of their size without altering their color or shape.

Kindergarten and up

Kids entering kindergarten and up can join us to enjoy the chill, artsy environment while they paint an abstract, textured canvas!  Please note, we will be using acrylic paints, so please do not wear your finest clothing!

Limited space!  Please stop at the children's desk beginning at 3:30 PM for a free ticket, while supplies last.

Suncatcher Painting

Kids grade 1+ are invited to pain suncatchers. This is a potentially messy program, so please do not wear your finest! Suncatchers will need to dry 2-3 hours. Participants will be able to pick them up later or bring them home (very carefully) on a paper plate.
