Did you know the Natural History Museum at Sierra College offers free science events? Join them this Saturday for Glow On! Natural Bioluminescence!

Join Us! Our next program is Free Saturday: Glow On! Natural Bioluminescence on Saturday, June 6, 2026, from 10am-noon with Free Admission! We’ll enjoy a free, fun-filled day exploring this special chemical reaction called bioluminescence! Nature can put on a stunning show, especially when it comes to the creatures on our planet that just glow. They have what others don’t: natural bioluminescence! This special chemical reaction allows living things to produce light in their bodies, from the ocean's depths to forests, which they use for communication, attracting prey, finding mates, and defense. Hear stories about natural bioluminescence, enjoy a bioluminescence-inspired chemistry experiment, create your own art inspired by these glowing creatures, and enjoy glowing drinks and snacks. All ages welcome!

Our Rancho Cordova TK class got to experience a clutch of egg quails hatching! Our youngest scholars followed the incubation period along and eventually got to hold the tiniest chicks as they learned about these remarkable creatures. Thank you Ms. Kate!
