It's time once again for the Mad Lab! This Halloween Discovery Lab will feature glowing experiments, spooky crafts, and, of course, marine science. This year's theme is Things that Lurk in the Deep. Come find out what strange creatures live in the ocean depths, from the midnight zone and below! This night of fun, activities, and learning is on October 16th from 6 - 8pm. Costumes are encouraged!
Discovery Labs are free, family-friendly programs provided each month by CBNERR-VA at VIMS. Designed with elementary-aged youth and their parents in mind, each lab focuses on a different topic related to the Chesapeake Bay and our local environment and includes exhibits, demonstrations, and hands-on activities as well as a short presentation (from 6:30-7:00 PM) by an expert on the topic.
Reservations to this event are required due to limited space.
