Celebrate the awakening of our bees as we enjoy their buzzing presence! In this session learn about bee keeping and discover the unique properties of beeswax. Create your own sustainable, reusable beeswax-coated fabric wrap to take home and enjoy!

What is soil? What does it feel, look, smell like? In this session combining art and science, young investigators will use all their senses to examine the natural colors and textures under their feet. With a mortar and pestle, they will turn soil samples into pigments to manufacture paint as old masters did. Now our young artists are ready to create beautiful earth tone masterpieces!

Equipped with magnifying lenses, nature explorers will peruse the Peace Garden (Pollinator Garden?) for the insects and birds fluttering around. We’ll find out who is attracted to what color and flower and play a matching game! Participants will create beautiful paper flowers and receive a matching pollinator toy to take home.
