Exploration Station: Pet Rock Adoption & Grooming Salon
Saturday, April 1 @ 10:30 am – 12:00 pm
(Please mentally start humming “In the Arms of the Angels” by Sarah McLachlan here.)
All across the world—even right here in Wisconsin—thousands upon thousands of rocks lay alone, cold, and friendless. They’re waiting, just waiting for that special kid to come along, pick them up, and take them home. Could your child be the one?
Bring your big-hearted kid to MCM to adopt a pet that we 100% guarantee won’t shed, soil the carpet, or end up with you having to take it out in the snow for potty breaks. Groom your rock into show-worthy shape with paint and other decorations, and then take it home to join your family.
We don’t promise that adopting this particular pet rock will stop your kid from filling their pockets (or yours, or your purse) with lovingly-adopted rocks during every walk or hike, but it’s worth trying.
All Exploration Stations are free with general museum admission.
