Nice Age Trail Grand Opening Weekend (Day 2)
Sunday, June 2 @ 9:00 am – 4:00 pm
Come celebrate the grand opening of MCM’s brand-new nature exhibit, the Nice Age Trail! Buzz, slide, hop, flutter, and tromp through a four-season environment as you transform into some of Wisconsin’s most amazing animals. This interactive nature experience encourages imagination, exploration, and practicing kindness — to animals, to nature, to people, and to yourself.
All day throughout the museum, enjoy immersive programs, performances, and special activities centering our connection with nature and community. Participate in an energetic drum circle for all ages with Elmore Lawson, explore the relationships between pollinators and plants in our own Rooftop Ramble garden, and create a lenticular nature scene like the one found in the Trail’s summer section!

10:00–12 pm – Exploration Station: Think Like a Bee (Rooftop)
11–12 pm – Drum Circle with Elmore Lawson (Wonderground)
