(VLA 2nd Grade) La Brea Tar Pits: Self-Guided Tour
March 27 @ 10:30 am - 12:30 pm
(Release Date: January 14 at 12:00 noon)
This event is for 2nd Grade VLA students and their families only. All students must be accompanied by an adult.
At the La Brea Tar Pits, you will visit the only Ice Age fossil site in the world that's being actively excavated in the middle of a city! Observe science in action and make discoveries right alongside scientists. Step into the past and experience the Ice Age come to life as you witness "tar" bubbling to the surface, discover the iconic lake pit, and walk through this amazing natural phenomenon and active dig site. Inside the museum, located at the center of the site, scientific teams work on the discoveries in the see-through Fossil Lab. The Tar Pits provide an incredibly complete record of the different plants and animals that have lived in the L.A. Basin throughout history.

Please keep in mind that space is extremely limited and this field trip is a chance for your VLA student to BOND with their fellow grade level classmates. In order to keep the focus on our students, and to adhere to the requirements of the museum, please limit your tickets to ONE adult per VLA student unless absolutely necessary.
Please note that during school field trips and other school-sponsored community events, photos and videos may be taken where students could appear in group settings. While we make every effort to respect media preferences, students may sometimes be captured in the background or within group shots in public spaces. If your child does not have media consent on file, they will not be the main focus of any photo or video. We do not highlight or identify individuals without prior consent.
