As the seasons begin to shift, there’s a natural sense of transformation in the air—and Halloween is the perfect time to embrace it. Walking Mountains Science Center celebrates this spirit with its annual Fright at the Museum, a family-friendly event that blends spooky fun with hands-on science.
Centered around themes of transformation, experimentation, and classic monster lore, the event invites guests of all ages to explore interactive activities inspired by mad scientists, chemistry, and the science of change. From creative crafts and immersive environments to engaging demonstrations, attendees can experiment, build, and play while discovering the wonders of science in a festive setting.
Designed as a community celebration, Fright at the Museum offers a wide variety of hands-on stations and experiences suitable for all ages. Guests are encouraged to come in costume, participate in interactive exhibits, and enjoy a lively, educational Halloween atmosphere.
In addition to the festivities, the event reflects Walking Mountains’ commitment to sustainability. Efforts are made to reduce environmental impact through responsible materials use, waste reduction, and encouraging eco-friendly transportation options such as walking, biking, or carpooling.
Fright at the Museum is both a celebration and a fundraiser, supporting Walking Mountains’ mission to inspire environmental stewardship and curiosity through natural science education.
