Lunch and Learn with Snakes

“When you learn, you understand. When you understand, you care.” Denise Lewis, Director of Raptor Recovery at Fontenelle Forest

There is no greater way to spend your lunch hour! Rather than eating at your desk, come enjoy your brown-bagged lunch at Fontenelle Forest for a This drop-in lunch and learn program focuses on a local animal topic to bring new understanding to those creatures people often stigmatize. One of our animal care technicians will give a brief lecture about a species, answer questions, and bring out a live animal to observe.

This year’s theme is “Lunch with Nebraska’s Creepiest”, so whether you want to face your fears or simply learn more about a well-love animal, this lecture series should leave you with new knowledge of species you have seen before.

All lectures will be in the Forest Room at the Nature Center at 12 p.m. Choose a seat, pick up a beverage, and unpack your lunch. We’ll bring the education, conversation, and new people to meet with an interest in Nebraska’s local fauna.

*This drop-in program is $5 + daily admission.

*Pack your own lunch; beverages will be provided
