BEGIN AGAIN: 50 YEARS AND COUNTING
February 7 – December 13, 2026 / Aronson Fine Arts Center
NEW DATE: RESCHEDULED FROM OCTOBER 10. Join us for a guided hike through Laumeier’s trails and creek beds as we explore the Park’s hidden fossil treasures! Led by local rockhound and mineral enthusiast Ryan Gorman, this adventurous walk takes participants off the beaten path to discover ancient seashells and crinoid fossils throughout the Park’s chert rock and limestone formations. Learn about different tools and gadgets rockhounds use to spot rare pieces of quartz or ancient marine fossils while sifting along the creek beds. You might surprise yourself when you make a discovery of your own.
Saturday, November 14 / 10 a.m.– 12 p.m. / $5 reservation required / Level 3
Celebrate the colors and textures of fall in this nature-inspired workshop. Create beautiful leaf-imprinted bowls using real leaves gathered from the Park or brought from home. Learn basic handbuilding techniques as you shape your bowl around a mold, then personalize your piece with texture, carving, or autumn-themed underglazes. Whether you go bold and bright or earthy and subtle, your finished bowl will be a one-of-a-kind keepsake of the season. Bring your own wine (or other beverage of your choice); light snacks provided. Pick up your finished piece the following week.
