About this event
Discover the creatures that make the night glow! Kids ages 8–12 will spend an evening at the Garden learning about bioluminescence and the fascinating organisms that create their own light, from phytoplankton along North Carolina’s coast and glowing “foxfire” fungi to fireflies and other unexpected species. Along the way, they’ll enjoy hands-on activities, an after-hours Garden adventure, a night hike, and a campfire with s’mores, weather permitting.
This three-hour Kids Night Out is designed to be fun, active, and educational — giving kids a chance to learn more about night-time creatures while making new friends.
