The Academy invites everyone to its first-ever Game Night: Environmental Board Games at the Academy, in partnership with Redcap’s Corner.
Guests can gather in Dinosaur Hall and play exciting nature-based games among Tyrannosaurus rex and other Mesozoic reptiles. They can trek gorgeously illustrated trails in Parks, engage with wildlife in Cascadia, compete to be the night’s most-skilled nature observer in Meadow, or build a habitable world in Planets.
From beginners to seasoned players, all are welcome. Experienced staff will be available to guide game selection and answer questions. Guests can come with friends or meet new ones around a table at the Academy. Ages 18+
