Dive into a day of family-friendly, water-related activities!

Start with a fun picture book during storytime. Then explore our Downstream exhibition using our self-guided activity sheet.

Ask questions, find clues, and work together with your group to solve puzzles—and you just might earn a water-themed prize!

Close out your visit to our museum with a stop at our Object Explorer, an interactive touchtable where you can learn the history behind everyday objects like ice-cube trays.

This month we’re reading Little Turtle and the Changing Sea by Becky Davies and making our own paper plate turtles!


Family Day takes place the third Saturday of each month. Admission is free and no reservations are necessary.
