Join us on Tuesdays for special family play dates with museum educators!
Tuesday, August 1st is all about fossils! Families can learn about and make close observations of fossils from our collection, use science skills to make their own fossil discoveries, and think together about what those fossils teach us about ancient life. Come and join us for a fun time learning through play and exploration!
