Discovery Day at the Arboretum

Your family can enjoy a morning of hands-on creativity at the Arboretum's monthly Discovery Day program. Kids will work on a seasonal craft project that ties into the natural world around them—December's project focuses on bean mosaic art. All crafting materials are provided, and each month brings a different make-and-take project designed to spark curiosity about nature. Projects are available while supplies last for the first 100 participants who arrive. The best part? This event falls on Free Admission Day at the Arboretum, so both entry to the gardens and participation in the craft are completely free. It's a great way to spend a few hours exploring the grounds while your children create something they can take home. Plan to arrive early if you want to ensure your child gets a spot for the project, since availability is first-come, first-served.
