Shell in a Handbasket

Join a knowledgeable naturalist for an up-close look at shells—both ancient fossils and ones from snails living today. You'll discover how gastropods have evolved over time, compare the different shapes their shells take, and learn about the clever ways modern snails have adapted to survive. The program features beautiful specimen examples from the Kentucky Science Center collection that are now part of Falls of the Ohio's offerings. This hour-long session takes place in the Rotunda and works well for curious kids who enjoy nature and science. The $7 program fee covers your participation plus free admission to the park's exhibits, making it a nice value for families looking to spend an afternoon exploring. It's a casual, educational experience that doesn't require advance registration or special preparation.
