Join us for FREE froggy fun at the Santa Fe College Teaching Zoo! Learn about amphibians at this special nocturnal edition of Museum in the Parks and gear up for Amphibian Week (May 4-10)!

We’ll be joined by the FrogWatch team at Santa Fe College to learn how to identify the calls of local frogs and toads, understand their role in the ecosystem, and how to become a community scientist!
