Come hang with reptiles at the Portland Aquarium!! We’re teaming up with PDX Critters to bring you an up-close, hands-on experience you won’t forget.
Get ready to meet incredible lizards, snakes, spiders, and more — and yes, you’ll even have the chance to hold some of these amazing animals! Whether you’re fascinated by scaly superstars, curious about eight-legged friends, or just want to conquer a fear in a safe and welcoming space, this event is perfect for all ages.
Our expert handlers will be sharing fun facts, answering questions, and teaching you all about:
✨ Unique reptile adaptations
✨ How these animals survive in the wild
✨ Why reptiles and arachnids are so important to our ecosystems
✨ How to safely and respectfully interact with them
It’s interactive, educational, and just the right amount of wild.
Bring your friends, bring your family, and come discover why reptiles rule the animal kingdom. 🐍💚
