Critter Encounter: Reading the Secrets Written in the Snow

Join us at the Lilly Center for the next Critter Encounter: Reading the Secrets Written in Snow! At this educational event, students will learn about animals moving through the forest and the tracks they leave behind.

Families can move at their own pace through hands-on STEM stations, meet some of our native critter ambassadors, peek behind the scenes in our aquarium lab, and enjoy a cozy winter snack break.

End your visit by creating a personalized nature journal to take home—perfect for tracking your own winter discoveries all season long.

Mark your calendars for January 24 to discover the tracks of Indiana’s woodland wildlife. Critter Encounter events like this one are built for students in elementary school.

This event is underwritten by Depuy Synthes and the Zimmer Biomet Foundation.
