The Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum will host its annual “Air & Scare” family day from noon to 5:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 20, at the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center in Chantilly, Virginia. Visitors will enjoy safe, indoor trick-or-treating and spooky activities for all ages at this free event.
Designed with the whole family in mind, aerospace will come alive with fun activities, all with a Halloween twist. The newest addition to this year’s “Air & Scare” is a virtual experience where visitors will have the opportunity to see what it might be like to ride a vehicle on Mars. Participants will also enjoy spooky crafts, trick-or-truth stations, science experiments and treat giveaways. The Tot Zone will feature space-themed activities and a dress-up corner. The Rainbow Puppets will perform their show “Take a Giant Leap,” and the Airbus IMAX Theater will offer showings for all ages. Everyone’s favorite costumed characters will be on-hand for photo opportunities. Returning favorite activities include Paper Scare-Plane Design Challenge, the Trick or Trajectory Rocket Launch and Air & Scary Lego Creations.
Attendees are encouraged to come in their favorite space or flight-themed costume. For safety purposes, full-face masks are prohibited on visitors over 16 years of age. Admission is free, but parking is $15 until 4 p.m. Public transportation is also available via Metro’s Silver Line and the Fairfax Connector bus. “Air & Scare” is made possible by Mars Wrigley Confectionery US LLC.
