School Break Program: The Equinox Blues: Making Cyanotypes in the Autumn Sun
Learn about cyanotypes, a kind of printmaking that involves harnessing the sun to make precise copies of objects.
Family Program: StoryWalk® Through History
Inspired by the StoryWalk® movement, pages of a picture book will be displayed along our easy-to-stroll paths, paired with questions and prompts to keep people of all ages engaged. Up for more of a challenge? Enjoy the longer story on our longer trail! Every half hour, our educator will lead a guided craft that connects to the themes of the books.
