Open from September 20th – January 9th at the Don Harrington Discovery Center.

Calling young artists and inventors! Immerse yourself in the mind of Leonardo da Vinci– building, sketching, testing, and designing, just like the “Renaissance Man” himself. Hands-on activity tables explore his contributions to art, science, anatomy and engineering. Will you recreate da Vinci’s work, or add an exciting twist that’s all your own?

Included with membership or general admission.

Leonardo’s Lab, a traveling exhibit, was developed by Carnegie Science Center (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) and produced in partnership with the Sciencecenter (Ithaca, New York).

AAMW Hosting Howl-O-Ween Enrichment

and Treat Walk

AMARILLO – The City of Amarillo Animal Management and Welfare Department (AAMW) is hosting a special holiday event helping shelter cats and dogs (and the public) celebrate Halloween in style.

AAMW’s Howl-O-Ween Enrichment and Treat Walk is set for Friday (October 31) from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. at the AAMW shelter, 3501 S. Osage St.

“AAMW is inviting the community for a festive afternoon of enrichment, treats and volunteer fun,” said AAMW

Outreach Manager Katrena Volden. “Sharing treats and time with our shelter animals isn’t just festive, it is a wonderful way to support their health and happiness. Every visit helps ease their stress and gives them the social connection they need to thrive.”

The details:

• Join the kennel-walk and hand out dog treats, provided by AAMW.
  • Make toys and treats for AAMW cats and dogs.

  AAMW also has a donation wish list of:

  • Toilet paper rolls/paper towel rolls.
  • Shoe boxes, tissue boxes, cardboard boxes, etc.
  • Old T-shirts, towels, rags, etc.
  • Clean containers (water bottles, jugs, etc.)
  • Treats.
    • Toys.

    The AAMW Howl-O-Ween Enrichment and Treat Walk will also be a great opportunity to learn how to get involved as an AAMW volunteer.
