AVON — The second annual Fright at the Museum is happening Saturday from 3 to 6 p.m. at Walking Mountains Science Center in Avon. This fun-filled community event includes activities to learn about the mystery behind magic and illusion.

Come explore the campus as the sun goes down to learn with your favorite nature enthusiasts from Walking Mountains Science Center and, above all else, have a mind-bending time. The event is $15 per person.

A highlight of the evening is sure to be the Illusions Gallery, where your eyes will play tricks on you as we invite visitors to explore the science behind optical illusions. Discover how simple illustrations and photos can confuse your brain and appear to be something else entirely.



You’ll be left astonished and asking questions; is the image moving, how did it just turn a different color, is there a hidden animal in that photograph?
