We offer a number of special events and programs in addition to our regular classes. Events include behind-the-scenes tours, one-time workshops, field trips, and our BSC Speaker Series.

Many events are free and open to the community; others have a fee. Certain events may only be opened up for non-members to attend after our members have had the opportunity to sign up first.
