“You can’t use up creativity. The more you use the more you have.” - Maya Angelou
Whether your child likes art, scientific subjects, animal handling, or hands on crafting. Our programming provides a variety of enjoyable and educational classes. Especially for children who have interests in painting, dancing, stories, or scientific exploration.
We offer these classes every day to keep things fresh and exciting at the museum. Daily classes are free with admission to museum.
We are delighted to have the support of our esteemed partners, including HawkWatch International, Mundi Project, Dog Training Elite Utah, and Scales and Tails Utah, who have helped us design our classes. Our team of in-house instructors includes an art instructor, steam lab instructor, and theater instructor. In addition, we are excited to announce that we will be launching new programs for children with diverse interests.
