Lava Island

Art After Dark

Wednesday, February 11, 2026 · 4:00 PM – 7:00 PM

Join GPCA’s Nature Educators on Wednesday evenings to explore and discover together! This program runs every week from 4-7:30pm. This free, drop in program is designed for kids and families ages 4 and up. Activities will follow themes of nature and science, but with a special focus on learning, processing, and making personal connections to subject matter through art. Families can enjoy open-ended collaborative or individual projects, nature journal prompts inspired by the Conservatory collection and conversations about Chicago’s ecosystems and our place in them, in a calm and inviting atmosphere!
