Overview

Celebrate the joy of getting a little messy at the Open Space Visitor Center with this free, family-friendly event honoring one of nature’s most playful elements—mud!

Whether you’re tackling the mud obstacle course, cooking up creations in the mud kitchen, relaxing at the mud spa, or cooling off in the water play area, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. This hands-on day invites kids and adults alike to dig in, explore, and connect with the earth through sensory play and nature-based fun.

International Mud Day is an annual celebration that encourages children and communities worldwide to engage in playful activities involving mud. It aims to raise awareness about the importance of play in early childhood development and the challenges some children face in accessing clean play environments. The day emphasizes the joy of

getting dirty while fostering a connection with nature. Come dressed to get muddy, bring your sense of adventure, and enjoy free paletas while supplies last!
