Spending time in nature is beneficial to our health in so many ways. You may have observed this, but also study after study tells us that time in nature can offer one of the most effective boosts to our overall well-being.

On June 2, from 6 p.m. to 9:30 p.m., treat yourself to a fun, casual night out in nature with a date or a group of friends while supporting Heard Natural Science Museum & Wildlife Sanctuary's nonprofit fundraising event—Date Night at the Heard. Enjoy live classic rock music from the Blandelles, dancing, food trucks and more. Take an evening stroll through Native Texas Butterfly House & Garden and a designated portion of our other trails.

All guests ages 21 and up are invited; however, limited childcare is available for event participants (while spots last). Childcare is only $20 per child and will be offered by the same great staff and volunteers that lead Heard educational programs. Kids will enjoy live animal presentations, kid-friendly nature videos, games and puzzles. See www.heardmuseum.org/datenight for additional requirements and information. 

Tickets are limited and only $15 per person. Learn more about this fun event and buy your tickets now at www.heardmuseum.org/datenight.

About Heard Natural Science Museum & Wildlife Sanctuary

Heard Natural Science Museum & Wildlife Sanctuary was founded in 1967 by Bessie Heard. Miss Heard was 80 years old when she saw the need to preserve a place where future generations could experience nature. Today, the Heard's mission of bringing nature and people together to discover, enjoy, experience, restore, and preserve our priceless environment is carried out through education, particularly of young people, which emphasizes an appreciation of nature and its conservation.  For more information, visit www.heardmuseum.org.
