Plants and Pottery: Jack-O-Plantern's
Participants learn the basics of hand-built ceramics to sculpt and embellish their own pumpkin planter, which is glazed and fired between classes. During the follow-up session, guests take a tour of the zoo's Harvest Fest celebrations to view fall blooming plants before gathering in the Museum to pot their finished jack-o-planterns with colorful, easy-care houseplants.
