Enjoy an outdoor movie night on the renovated Decatur Square as the new large screen showcases GOAT. Pack blankets and lawn chairs for a laid-back evening of movie magic. The film follows Will Harris, a small goat with big aspirations who gets an unexpected chance to turn pro in roarball, a fast paced, coed, full contact sport led by the quickest and toughest animals. His quest proves that big dreams are not limited by size. This free screening features $1 bags of popcorn for sale, and Kona Ice will be available for purchase. More outdoor films are planned throughout the year, including Zootopia 2, Casper, and Wicked: Part 1. Presented by Visit Decatur GA and the Decatur Downtown Development Authority.

Geared toward families with very young critter fans, this relaxed session pairs a brief introduction with guided opportunities to meet salamanders, frogs, turtles, lizards, and snakes. Each month features a new set of animals. Children can engage at their own pace, and touching is optional. The focus is on a safe, shared learning experience for kids and their caregivers to discover these creatures together. This is not a drop-off activity and is well suited for children who are not yet old enough for Critter Camp.

Tailored for families with very young animal lovers, including children not yet eligible for Critter Camp, this relaxed program begins with a short presentation and continues with supervised, optional hands-on time with salamanders, frogs, turtles, lizards, and snakes. Each month focuses on a different group, giving kids and their caregivers a safe, unhurried way to discover these animals together. Adults remain with their children throughout, as this is a shared learning experience rather than a drop-off activity.

Exclusively for students, this class provides a more structured learning experience than the earlier Critter Café events. Each session begins with a guided lesson, then moves into hands-on activities and animal handling led by AF Educators. Participants can follow it as an ongoing series or drop in for a single topic. A different group is highlighted in every class.
