The World & Me: Bat Week Celebration
Kids & FamiliesSaturday, October 28, 2023, 10am – 12:30pm EDT

Join us for a special program celebrating Bat Week!
The National Museum of Natural History is collaborating with the U.S. Forest Service, Bat Conservation International, and other bat-loving friends for a morning celebrating bats! See bat specimens up close, make your own bat to hang upside down in your home, and learn other ways you can support bats all year long! Feel free to wear your favorite bat attire. Families can join at any time during the duration of the event and stay as long as suits each family.
Location: This program is held in Q?rius, The Coralyn W. Whitney Science Education Center, on the Ground Floor of the museum. Please enter through the Constitution Avenue entrance. Q?rius is located on the right as you enter the museum.
