The museum offers to the public a variety of educational programs relating to the museum's fields of interest. Field trips, lectures, concerts, movies, classes, and demonstrations are arranged throughout the year. Each month on the second and fourth Saturday, your young salt is welcome to join us in learning about local topics. Recent sessions have included sharks, fossils, light houses, and weird creatures of the bay. Sessions include a craft, activity or game, and special snack.
Space is limited and registration is required.
The group will assemble at the museum and the program will begin at 11 a.m. From 2 to 4 p.m., members of the group will have a chance to put their knowledge and skills to work when they comb the beach at Calvert Cliffs in search of their own fossils. A museum interpreter will accompany your group and be available to discuss your discoveries with you and answer any questions you may have. Wear appropriate clothing for beach combing, and bring a change of dry clothes if desired. See our Calendar of Events for Fossil Field dates.
