Join us on Father’s Day for an event celebrating fathers and father-figures! We’re offering dads FREE admission.
Throughout the day, families can make handprint art and Father’s Day cards in The Studio and participate in a photo scavenger hunt around the museum. Take home your artwork and family photos as keepsakes of the special day shared with dad!
Dig into the past for a prehistoric adventure on Dino Day!
On June 21, we’ll have dino themed activities in The Studio, The Lab, and Food to Grow, plus a dino scavenger hunt around the museum.
You’re invited to participate in the 16th Annual BFK Children’s Parade, presented by ThedaCare! During the parade, kids and their grown-ups stroll through downtown Appleton in themed costumes and non-motorized floats.
The parade kick-offs in Houdini Plaza at 6pm. After the parade, join us in City Park for the after-party. Enjoy free activities, entertainment, food trucks, and an award ceremony!
