Event Details
Explore the ideas within the dramatic rock formations in Teardrop Park on this day of creative family fun. Learn how the geology of planet Earth inspired artist Ann Hamilton who created the park’s sculpted rock formations. Volcanologist, Dr. Patricia Nadeau from the American Museum of Natural History, will tell the story of how our planet’s tectonic activity creates earthquakes and volcanoes and can literally move mountains! Make your own mini volcano to take home and join in as all the participants work to create a big volcano that will actually erupt through the chemistry of baking soda and vinegar! All materials are provided. Free!
Meet at Teardrop Park at the rock wall.
