Fantastic Beasts 101 (July 1 – July 3)

(ALL DAY: for ages 9-12) Ever caught a Bowtruckle poking around your backyard? Marveled at a Merperson in Lake Ontario? Discovered a Doxy in your desk drawer? Yes or no, it’s high time you brushed up on your magizoology notes so you’re prepared when the time comes. Welcome to Fantastic Beasts 101. In this camp, we’ll discuss the various fantastic beasts that have sprouted out of JK Rowling’s magical world. We’ll travel around the Neighborhood of the Arts looking for creature clues, pay a visit to the Rochester Museum and Science Center and have a visit from the ZooMobile to learn about real-life fantastic beasts, and even create our own! Oh, and there will be dragons. There’s a whole afternoon on dragons because THAT is something you’ll need to be prepared for. Bring your own books on magical creatures and a sense of adventure!
