Wild About Weather

10 AM - 4 PM
A full day of family fun!
Indoor activities include making clouds in a bottle and building a cloud viewer to help you identify clouds. Outside in the Solar House, learn how we harness solar energy and make your own solar bead bracelet.
In the Theater, we will have two special lectures about storms from Meteorologist Glenn Burns and The Weather Channel. In the Bentley Planetarium, our shows will highlight weather throughout the solar system.
