Celebrate Halloween the Maria Mitchell way—through science, nature, and a touch of spooky fun! After your downtown trick-or-treating adventure, meet an MMA Naturalist at the Pocket Park at the corner of Fair Street and Main Street, for a twilight walk from downtown Nantucket to the historic Hinchman House Natural Science Museum.
Along the way, we’ll explore the eerie side of Nantucket’s natural world—discovering animal adaptations that might just give you goosebumps, uncovering ghostly island lore, and completing a Halloween-themed nature scavenger hunt. You’ll even collect materials to create your own vampire bat leaf craft back at the museum!
🎃 Costumes welcome. Flashlights encouraged!
