4) Can you find ghosts or goblins in the museum? What about bats or blackbirds? Check out the Halloween-themed scavenger hunt and explore interesting artifacts. [Note: To move to the next image, use the arrows next to the photo]

5) OK, this last one isn’t something you’ll learn, but this Family Day is especially fun because you’re encouraged to wear a costume! We will be! Treats are available for participants while supplies last. [Note: To move to the next image, use the arrows next to the photo]
