Get into the Halloween spirit!

Examine live creepy crawlies, enjoy (semi) spooky attractions, and take home creative crafts.

For ages 7 and up, explore a “crime scene” and perform a series of forensic investigations (e.g., soil sample comparisons, water sampling, chromatography, pH tests, and track identification) to solve the mystery and pinpoint the culprit.

For ages 2 to 6, there will be stories and songs, silly and festive crafts, and a kooky treasure hunt.

Family presentations will be offered at 11:00 am and 1:00 pm.

Fly in on your broom for an hour or stay all day for some fun pre-Halloween family time!

This program is open to all ages.

Preregistration is not required.

Refreshments will be available for purchase.

Children must be accompanied by adults.

Rain or shine.

Costumes are encouraged for all.
