Halloween at the Heard, an annual fundraiser for Heard Natural Science Museum & Wildlife Sanctuary for eight years, has sold out ten days early this year. Because of attendee constraints on this event, the Heard will not be able to admit additional guests at the door. Friends of the Heard that missed their chance to purchase tickets to this year’s event are encouraged to mark their calendar for next year’s fun event or watch heardmuseum.org for information about the Heard’s next special event—Holiday Trail of Lights.
Halloween at the Heard will be held on October 18th. Families that have purchased tickets in advance will enjoy an evening full of fun activities including trick-or-treating along the Dinosaurs Live! Live-Size Animatronic Dinosaurs trail and a presentation of a movie on the Heard's outdoor amphitheater stage. The Heard recommends that guests bring insect repellant, flashlights, water-resistant blankets and/or stadium seats for use during the movie.
Heard Natural Science Museum & Wildlife Sanctuary would like to thank its sponsors for helping to make this event a success. Halloween at the Heard is sponsored in part by NBC5, Whole Foods, ClifKiD, Springfree Trampolines, Target, and Texas Roadhouse. Proceeds from this event benefit Heard Natural Science Museum & Wildlife Sanctuary, a private 501(c)3 organization.
The Heard 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 is carried out through education, particularly of young people, which emphasizes an appreciation of nature and its conservation.
