Anniston, AL– This winter and spring several school systems have announced that they will be closing on certain predetermined days. This will undoubtedly be leaving many local families scrambling to find activities they can do together. Anniston Museum is always a favorite destination, with seven permanent exhibit halls and lots of fun, educational material to explore. But this year families have the opportunity to visit the Museum in a very different way. From January through April, Anniston Museum presents a new program designed especially for families and small groups. In the Museum’s “Live Animal Experience” visitors will be able to explore the real world of a working biologist. As a participant in this unique program, you will have access to the Museum’s Live Animal Facility – an area which is usually off-limits to the public. There you will learn about the variety of animals the Museum cares for, and even learn how to handle many of the ones used in the Museum’s educational programs. Some participants may be allowed to enter a Bird of Prey Trail aviary with a trained naturalist to help capture a bird or participate in its feeding. Watch as the biologist feeds a snake and monitor lizard (not for the weak of stomach). And all participants will have the opportunity to hold and be photographed with a live animal, if they dare!

To ensure a more personal and educational program, each Live Animal Experience is limited to 10 participants total. Program opportunities are: from 1-3pm on February 15th, March 19th and April 14th, 15th & 16th. Cost is $20/non member$15/member. Children must be accompanied by an adult at all times and must be at least seven years old to participate. For questions or to reserve a Live Animal Experience for your family or small group, call the Tour Coordinator at 256-237-6766, ext 114, or email gmorey@annistonmuseum.org.

This program was made possible in part by a generous grant from Legacy, Inc.
