Cabin Fever Night in Richmond

Friday, February 18
5-8 pm

Winter doldrums got you down? Grab the kids and break out of the house for Cabin Fever Night! Learn about the secret lives of forest animals as you make your own paper food chain and match animals with their scat. Make a clay imprint of various animal tracks to keep and get an up-close look at live owls!

Are you a member of the museum? If so, check out our member's lounge with special treats and educational experiences. Don't be late because the first 250 people through the door get a free ticket to the IMAX® showing of "Sea Rex: Journey to a Prehistoric World." This evening's sure to be a hoot!
