This program invites teens to join us for an afternoon of calming and fun homemade bath bomb creation! Baths are unique moments of solace that offer individuals entry into their own self reflection. By adding different ingredients, such as epsom salts, lemon slices, or lavender essential oil, one is able to address different physical qualms and set intentions for their watery musings.

Portland Insectarium is the city's first museum and zoo dedicated entirely to bugs! In this program there will be a selection of live bugs on display, such as tarantulas, mantises, and scorpions! Some are touchable bugs (roaches, isopods, millipedes), others preserved insect displays. Toys and other activities will be there to explore, plus experts to answer any questions! Suitable for all ages.
