Looks like an amazing community event with plenty of fun activities for the whole family!
That is such a fun way to get everyone involved and showcase what the museum has to offer. It sounds like a great time.
I love community events and try not to miss any in our town, so cool and super fun and you get to meet new amazing people.
This is a perfect family event. The dino area would be my favorite. Tickets are fair as well. Another bonus.
