Learn about scaly, feathery, and furry friends in this interactive presentation! The Creature Teachers will bring several animal ambassadors with them from their rescue organization. They'll talk about the creatures and then you'll get a chance to observe them up close, touch them, and ask questions about them. All ages.

Build a shelter, design a boat, weave a shoe, or invent a fishing tool! Try out your own engineering skills while discovering technologies designed by Oregon’s first engineers. Native American people have always used science and engineering to create effective tools, homes, clothing, cooking methods and more - passing this knowledge down through generations. Many of these innovations are still being used today! Join us to explore a collection of Oregon artifacts from the museum and engage in fun, hands-on engineering challenges.

Ages 5 and up.
