Prince George’s Exploration Place launches brand-new Nature Exchange Online

Despite remaining closed due to COVID-19, Prince George’s Exploration Place Museum and Science Centre is launching a new online program today (Wednesday).

The “Nature Exchange Online” program will provide family-oriented activities throughout the summer, with weekly challenges posted on Facebook and the museum’s official website.

“To celebrate Canada Day our first Nature Exchange challenge is to encourage people of all ages to find and take a picture of something red and white in nature and share it with us online to be entered to win a weekly prize,” said Lisa Connor, Assistant Director, “we will also be posting a fun near and far photo mystery each week and we will see who can identify an item from nature up close before we reveal the answer.”

The Exploration Place is also hosting a virtual colouring contest and will be displaying the pictures on the facility’s atrium windows.

“We’ve created a few different Atrium window displays for other holidays including Mr. PG’s 60th and National Indigenous Peoples Day… it’s great to see park visitors stop outside our Atrium windows to enjoy the different displays,” Connor concluded.
