The Natural History of Witches and Wizards:
A Peabody Halloween

Live Tarantulas!
Saturday, October 25, 2008
10:00 am to 4:00 pm

Live owls, snakes, spiders and more!

Join us for our annual celebration of some of the animals and nature-based traditions associated with Halloween.

Most nocturnal animals, often on the witch’s brew ingredient list, are remarkably adapted to darkness, functioning just as easily as we can in daylight. Come learn about these “spooky” animals and see live owls, spiders and snakes.

The Peabody Talking HatAnd don’t miss some of the strangest-looking specimens from our collection rooms that rarely see the light of day. Join us for mask-making and other fun activities for kids.

Check back here for a complete schedule closer to the date.

See you there!
