Things are Heating Up this February at Fernbank!

Are you looking for the best things to do this month at Fernbank? You've found them!

See it before it's gone for the season! There are only a few more opportunities to experience Wildwoods: AGLOW before it closes on Feb. 28.  Escape from the bright city lights and go on an adventure into WildWoods, which has come alive with a soft and enchanting glow emphasizing the natural flora and fauna.  

It’s the season of love and what better place to celebrate than at Fernbank Museum. Fernbank After Dark + WildWoods: AGLOW: Love Lab is here to sweep you off your feet! Get up close and personal with the science behind relationships and discover the wild love lives of your favorite animals. Join us on Feb. 13 for an event that is perfect for first dates, longtime loves and besties alike.

Not only is Fernbank heating up; we are also chilling out! Visit the coolest exhibit in Atlanta: Planet Ice. Opening Feb. 7 with the Planet Ice Chill-abration, this immersive exhibit allows a firsthand look at the way ice impacted the shaping of Earth’s early landscape. Get face-to-fur with arctic megafauna and help us create the next big Atlanta blizzard. You don’t want to miss this exhibit, on view until May 3, 2026.

But that’s not all! Check out our Calendar of Events for all our daily programs and other events. Delve into the ancient world with a member of our education team as they lead a Dino Talk; create some natural memories with a Family Nature Walk; meet some members of our animal collection during a Live Animal Encounter; and so much more.
