Snakes are known to cause the “scare factor” in many people. In reality, they are misunderstood heroes of the forest and do so much for our ecosystem. Bring the whole family for a brief lesson on Snakes of Arkansas in our Discovery Room. One of our staff will read a story aloud, and then guide participants through making a craft to go along with the story. Registration is recommended.
