Late winter is the perfect time to take part in the New England tradition of maple sugaring. Join us for a walk in the woods to learn about the history of maple sugaring and how to identify maple trees, help tap a tree to collect sap, learn how you can make your own maple syrup at home, and taste fresh maple sap, syrups, and other maple goodies around the campfire.
Join us each Saturday for a different nature-based activity. We will explore the sanctuary, create art, climb trees, identify flora and fauna, get dirty, catch bugs, and, most importantly, enjoy the great outdoors!
Experience our birds of prey outside their enclosures! On the first Sunday of the month, we host a bird-on-glove demonstration where you can learn all about some of our magnificent raptors. Naturalists will discuss the animals’ traits, behaviors, and unique characteristics while the birds interact with their handlers.
Discover a brilliant collection of perspective-changing rooms, enthralling installations, and spellbinding images. Our exhibits will teach you that nothing is ever quite as it seems, especially in the Museum of Illusions. Get ready to be mesmerized!
