Nature Club: Museum Deep Dive

During January's Nature Club, explore collections and specimens from the Santa Cruz Museum of Natural History that do not always get to be seen by the public. The Museum’s extensive collection of fossils, shells, and animal specimens allow us to investigate nature up close and personal.

What is Nature Club?
Nature Club takes young explorers (6th-8th Grade) into local habitats to learn about the amazing living world around us while making discoveries along the way. Programs are led by Museum staff with kids dropped off at rotating locations, including local parks, open spaces, and of course at the Museum!

What to Expect
Programs occur on the first Saturday of the month. Prior registration is required. The Museum does not provide transportation to offsite meeting spots, and participants should be dropped off and picked up by parents/guardians.

Safety
Nature Club will run in compliance with state and county guidance for health and safety. Masks will be required for all participants, regardless of vaccination status. Participants should not attend if they have been coughing, have a fever, or had recent contact with someone with a positive test.
