6/21, 6/22, 6/23, 6/24, and 6/25 (5 sessions total)
Plant and animal species and ecosystems across the globe are endangered by human activity and climate changes—but there are scientists working to save them, including at the Smithsonian’s National Zoo and Conservation Biology Institute. Professionals from the field and an interactive online tour of conservation success stories inspire the Earth optimist within. Adventurers research endangered species, engineer solutions to habitat management issues, and develop a campaign to spread the word.
In grade-appropriate, week-long sessions, participants take a deep dive into the Smithsonian’s collections. These Adventures engage young people with unique content about natural sciences, history, art, and so much more. Weekday sessions explore a variety of Smithsonian topics and include virtual visits to museums, hands-on projects, games, collaborative challenges, and conversations with experts during 2 hours of live, online interaction with a team of experienced instructors.
Multiple Offerings! This Adventure is also offered at 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM ET. The same material will be taught in both sessions; please do not register for both.
Registration for this Adventure will close two weeks prior to the first session date. If you are trying to register after that point, please email us at SummerCamp@si.edu and we will do our best to accommodate your request if space is still available.
