Halloween Weekend

  • Museum Address 100 Playland Parkway Rye, NY, 10580 (map)

Come in costume for a not-so-scary Halloween STEAM event featuring:

  1. Name ‘dem Bones - Examine skeletons of vertebrate animals, big and small. Animals come in all shapes and sizes, but we have much in common under the skin. 

  2. Glow in the Dark Room - Play around with ultraviolet-reactive materials under our black lights and discover what makes things glow in the dark. There's nothing like an eerie green glow to set the tone. 

  3. Spider Web Engineering - Make a web out of yarn and test its strength, seeing how many weights it can hold. 

  4. Ghost Pour Painting - Create a spooky and haunting, BOO-tiful painting. 

  5. Pumpkin Guts Seed Count - Explore a Jack ‘O Lantern guts using tweezers (or fingers!) to count, sort, sequence, and estimate the seeds inside.

  6. Monster Hide ‘n Seek - Seek, find, and match the Monsters hiding around the Museum.
