Description

Join Seacoast Science Center naturalists and guest community partners after hours for family-friendly S.T.E.A.M. activities and a guided nature program, FREE of charge!

Offered on the third Friday of the month, each Nature @ Nite is based around a different theme. Activities are designed to build confidence and empower participants of all ages in learning through science play and discovery. 

Stations will engage you in science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics learning. Popup story times may be offered based on the evening’s theme. A scheduled, guided nature program will be offered at 5pm each evening: space is limited and separate registration is required to participate in the guided program. 

Always come dressed for outdoor exploration, and remember it is typically  cooler at the shore!
