Tickets are now available for Cincinnati Art Museum’s “Choose Your Own Gallery Adventure: Travel Through Time”. The event takes place on January 13, 1-2pm. Based on the Choose Your Own Adventure book series, this gallery walk centers on a storyline determined by the choices of participants. Each adventure begins at the Schmidlapp Gallery (Gallery 151) where a museum educator greets the group and sets the scene for the story. Participants decide where the story goes and which artworks they see. This month's theme is inspired by the exhibition Charles White: A Little Higher. Tickets are free but space is limited so don’t delay!

Cincinnati Parks hosts Citizen Science and The National Audubon Christmas Bird Count events on both Dec. 23 and Dec. 30. This early-winter bird census engages volunteers across the Americas to count birds within a single day.

Churchill’s Fine Teas has a January Tea Class coming up on Jan. 18 - Tea and Health. You’ll get to taste five teas and learn where tea comes from, how it's made, how to brew each type to get the best flavor, and what's the difference between true tea and herbal infusions. You’ll also hear about what makes tea so good for you, why it tastes so great, and the additional health benefits you get from added fruits, herbs, and spices.  Tickets required.
