The Albany Pine Bush Preserve Commission will be offering programs every day at the Discovery Center for the week of Feb. 16 to 20.

“If you’re looking to get out of the house during school vacation week, come check out one of our exceptional programs,” said Sara Poggi, environmental educator and public program coordinator, in a release from the preserve. “The theme for the week is ‘Environmental Leaders.’ We have programs scheduled for all ages with both indoor and outdoor options if you want to get some fresh air.”

Programs include Wonder Walk on Tuesday inspired by writer, scientist, and ecologist Rachel Carson, and Animal Behavior Study on Friday inspired by Nobel Prize laureate and animal behaviorist Niko Tinbergen.

Programs are $3 per person and $5 per family; children under 5 years old may participate for free. Pre-registration is required for all programs. The Discovery Center is located at 195 New Karner Road in Albany.
