To ensure the wellbeing of our community, we have decided to hold this year's A Timeless Affair as a virtual event.
Please be advised that during our phased reopening, some Fernbank facilities may not be available out of an abundance of caution.
At this time, the Giant Screen Theater and Frances Wood Wilson Foundation Theater will remain temporarily closed, as will the highly interactive exhibit NatureQuest (Indoor Children's Exhibit on Upper Level).
