A family celebration of World Turtle Day

Posted

Celebrate World Turtle Day with the family on Friday, May 23, at the Audubon Nature Center and Aquarium. Meet a variety of turtles up close and personal — touching, learning, and even snapping a picture with them.

Discover the secrets of different turtle species, their unique habits, and how they contribute to our ecosystems. From box turtles to aquatic turtles, visitors will have the chance to interact with them and ask all their turtle questions.

It’s a fun, interactive evening of education and exploration — perfect for nature-loving families.

The program is from 6:30 to 8 p.m. Fee is $10/member adult, $5/member child; or $14/non-member adult, $7/non-member child. Ages: 6 and up. Register online at asri.org/calendar.

Jim McGaw

A lifelong Portsmouth resident, Jim graduated from Portsmouth High School in 1982 and earned a journalism degree from the University of Rhode Island in 1986. He's worked two different stints at East Bay Newspapers, for a total of 18 years with the company so far. When not running all over town bringing you the news from Portsmouth, Jim listens to lots and lots and lots of music, watches obscure silent films from the '20s and usually has three books going at once. He also loves to cook crazy New Orleans dishes for his wife of 25 years, Michelle, and their two sons, Jake and Max.
