Winterfest Lantern Walk

February 27 @ 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm

Finishing off our month-long celebration for wildlife at the Schuylkill Center, we will be hitting the trails for one of our beloved nighttime hikes. See the woods from a whole new perspective as we gather for an evening of exploration while the sun sets. Together we will create our own lanterns, then take a guided hike with our educators through the trails. Winter uncovers a unique beauty in our forest while the trees are bare and the nights are quiet.
