SUNDAY, APRIL 12

Understanding Herps with DIY Slime (Ages 4+)

10:00–11:00 AM

Marissa Jacobs, Educator and Founder of The Art of Ecology

Investigate what makes reptiles and amphibians—collectively called herps—so unique in this exciting (and slightly messy!) program. Explore wildlife classification, discover how humans and herps differ, learn about their roles in our woodland and watershed ecosystems, and find out how we can help protect them. Create your own slime as a visual aid and hands-on way to understand these amazing animals.

Suitable for ages 4+. Please dress accordingly—slime can sometimes be sticky or tacky. Children must be accompanied by an adult. Registration required for children only.

Members: $15 | Non-Members: $20
