Science of Scary at the Ambler Arboretum

What are you afraid of? On Saturday, October 25, from 4 to 7 p.m., the Ambler Arboretum will host the Science of Scary, a community event for all ages, in which educational partners will teach us that some of our biggest fears — spiders, snakes, bats, bees, flying — might not be so scary after all! Register for this family-friendly event online: https://bit.ly/46QLeo1. This is a pay-as-you-will event. Suggested payments include $10 for individuals and $25 for families. Read more about the Science of Scary at https://bit.ly/3KPvclN. The Science of Scary will offer a wide variety of hands-on, interactive experiences and tours designed to explore things in nature (and beyond) that may seem frightening but are important for their environment. Additional Temple exhibitors will include the Tyler School of Art and Architecture Greenhouse Education and Research Complex, the Temple College of Engineering’s flight simulator, the Temple ESA SEEDS (Strategies for Ecology Education, Diversity, and Sustainability) Chapter, the Temple Ambler Library and College of Science and Technology Biology Assistant Professor Christopher Agard and his students who will explore everything from reptiles and amphibians to things that go bump in the night!
