Local Fun For All This Fall and Winter Season
The weather is finally cooling down! Now is the perfect time to get outdoors and make some
memories this fall and all the way through the holiday season. Here are a few local spots and
events that are family and handicap-friendly, accessible for all.
The DoSeum

The DoSeum is more than just indoor learning and fun. Did you know that the DoSeum offers
39,000 sq. feet of beautiful outdoor exhibit space called The Big Outdoors? It’s like a museum
within a park! The Big Outdoors is divided into two yards: The West Yard and The East Yard.
The West Yard is an active outdoor zone, with large-scale exhibit features where kids can get
active while learning. The East Yard is sensory-friendly, a quiet zone that draws focus to
stories and quiet exploration of the environment.
