Science in the Parks is an interactive outreach program designed for children of all ages, especially preschool through middle school, as well as their families. The free program will visit three parks this summer in the Ogden area, in conjunction with Ogden School District’s free summer lunch program. Each week we visit a different park, and from 12:00 – 1:00 pm each day of the week we present a different collection of interactive, playful, and fun science activities. Please visit our blog for this year’s details.

Program

Typically, we coordinate our summer “tour” to Ogden City parks in coordination with Ogden School District’s lunch program and our Arts in the Parks partners. We post that schedule on our blog and spread the word through social media and other outlets. Other news, updates, and resources are posted on our blog, too.

There are major changes to our 2023 schedule. Check out details and where Science in the Parks (or Science in the Community) will be on our blog or Facebook page!
