Weekend Wonder
Ecosystem Preserve / Programs / Weekend Wonder
We believe that wonder knows no season so bring your curiosity to this once-a-month Saturday series. Held at the Bunker Interpretive Center, we're bringing in experts of all kinds to increase your knowledge, skills, and joy for the world around us.
Weekend Wonder is family friendly. Unless noted, each Weekend Wonder includes parallel programming for adults and kids (age 3+). Grown-ups, enjoy time with other adults while the kids are safe and having fun - no sitter required.
