Event Description
Join us for a family-friendly evening celebrating neighborhood spiders! Discover why these arachnids are essential to healthy ecosystems, how they create their webs, and which species live right here in Milwaukee. Through hands-on activities and a web-themed game, you'll learn to appreciate these often misunderstood creatures before heading outside to search for spiders and their webs. Whether you're a spider enthusiast or a little squeamish, you'll leave with a new appreciation for the eight-legged neighbors that help keep nature in balance.
