Fernbank Heats Things Up This July
Fernbank is lit up like a firework for July! Whether you’re looking for a fun way to celebrate the Fourth of July, enjoy the MLB All-Star game or just get outside, Fernbank has something for everyone.
SHELL-SHOCKING FUN — The new exhibit, Turtles, is open daily for guests! You can not only observe live turtles in the exhibit, but you can also enjoy one of several daily live animal presentations to get up close with these reptiles.
STAY COOL — Need to cool off? Enjoy one of our films in the Giant Screen Theater! Coral Sea will take you to the remote water off the Australian coast, while Superpower Dogs will show you the secret talents of man’s best friend.
STAY AFTER HOURS — Looking to explore the museum at night? You now have multiple opportunities! Those 21 and older can attend Fernbank After Dark: Survivor or Gallery Laughs, while those ages 13-17 can stop by Teen Takeover. And everyone can enjoy Fernbank... but LATER at the end of the month.
SOAK UP THE SUN — Itching to get outside? Try one of our guided hikes through Fernbank Forest this month! Or teens (ages 13-17) can be an environmental scientist for a day with the Teen Forest Lab on July 13. And, as always, guests can enjoy Spirit Guides: Fantastical Creatures from the Workshop of Jacobo and María Ángeles daily in WildWoods.
