The University of Alaska Museum of the North will hold a Marmot Family Day on Saturday, Jan. 29 from noon to 5 p.m.
Learn about weather-predicting groundhogs and take home a shadow of your own. Make marmot masks and play a life-sized marmot game. See marmots from the museum’s collection and ask questions of marmot expert Aren Gunderson.
Activities are included with regular museum admission. For more information, call 907-474-7505.
