Family Nature Nights

The City of Edmonton presents Family Nature Nights in partnership with Nature Alberta's Young Naturalists Club and the Alberta Science Network (ASN).

Free Family Fun

Imagine going outside to play after dinner and coming home sounding like an expert on aquatic insects, birds, leaves or even the habits of urban coyotes! The possibilities are endless in our natural environment and we have the right nature enthusiasts and expert biologists to guide you through a summer of deepening your connections to our beautiful, complex planet.

When: Wednesday nights from 6-8:15pm

Family Nature Night will run rain or shine. In the event of extreme weather, the program will be cancelled and notification will be posted on the Facebook page.
