Fossil Casting

Make a fossil cast that is yours to keep, and handle some real fossils.

Please Note:

• Children under 12 MUST be accompanied by a paid adult registered in the program.
• Participants must be at least 4 years old, due to the age-specific program content, the plaster material used, and the height of the tables. Children under 4 are not allowed in the room.
• This program takes place in an indoor lab. Plaster can be messy and dusty. There are sinks in the room for washing up.
• Nitrile (latex-free) gloves can be provided to accommodate allergies or sensory processing differences upon request.
• The room is accessible for mobility devices less than 81 cm (31 inches) wide (the width of the door) and can accommodate up to five mobility devices per session.
