National Fossil Day Family Pop-in Workshop
1:30 pm-4:30 pm
Stop by between 1:30 and 4:30 (while supplies last) to examine real fossils on National Fossil Day with a “picking” activity featuring fossil-rich sediment from Aurora, NC*. Play our Fossil or Fake game and use plaster to create your own plaster fossil cast replica to take home. Children must be supervised at all times. (*All fossils and sediment must remain on site for scientific research purposes.)
Purchase your ticket for these activities online at least one week before the program to receive the early-bird discount. Please visit the front desk on the day of the program to check the availability of supplies. Supplies are limited and purchasing ahead is highly recommended.
