Event date : Sun. Mar. 20

If something feels weird on Sunday, March 20, it may be because its National Extraterrestrial Abduction Day! This day, which may have started in 2008 at a festival in Toronto, now provides the perfect reason for a Family Mystery Day at the San Bernardino County Museum in conjunction with the museums newest exhibit, Mysteries at the Museum. Activities are scheduled between 1 and 4 p.m.

The first order of business at Mysteries at the Museum Day will be making tin foil hats. Other activities include puzzle mysteries, platypus coloring, and discovering the differences between ravens and crows.

The exhibit itself features objects from the museum collections that may not be quite what they seem. Visitors can use the scientific method to deduce what the objects are or how they were used, and then check their hypotheses.
