Did you know that Bonza Bottler Day is celebrated once a month when the number of the month coincides with the number of the day? Bonza Bottler Day is a day just to have a party. This holiday was created on August 8th, 2005, by Elaine Fremont when she realized there were no special occasions to celebrate one month. She created a special day that can be celebrated every month by just having fun and an excuse to have a party. Join us at Explore & More for a day of fun and learning as we explore in the museum exhibits, create your own candy-filled pinata and fine tune our culinary skills as we cook up some party treats to enjoy! Spaces are limited, so register today!
