About Adult Programs
HAWS Schallock Center for Animals is excited to offer new programming for adults this year! These adult-only programs will give you a chance to unwind while either trying a new hobby, or practicing something you already love.
Cookie Decorating at the Barn
$20/person | December 13 | 12:30-2:30PM | Ages 18+
Calling all adults and kids at heart! It’s time to mosey on down to SCA for a barnyard cookie bonanza! Guests will decorate their very own (for humans) sugar cookie with colorful icing and fun decorations, then create a special animal-safe cookie for one of our resident horses or goats using herbivore safe topping.
Once the decorating is complete, guests will head out to meet one of our resident horses and, with staff guidance, offer their handmade treat. The experience wraps up with a visit to our friendly goats, giving everyone a chance to spend time with some of our favorite farm residents.
NOTE: This event will take place in our semi-heated barn. While it will be warmer than outside, please plan to dress in layers.
Goat with the Flow: A Unique Mindfulness Experience
$20/person | September 12 | 12:30-2PM | Ages 18+
Join us for a truly unique 90-minute experience. Before settling into the stillness, spend the first 30 minutes enjoying a silly social time with the friendly resident goats. Then, mosey on down past our beautiful pollinator garden to the peaceful pond, where you’ll be guided through a calming meditation accompanied by a soothing sound bath. As the gentle tones blend with the nature sounds of birds and breezes, you’ll be invited to unwind, recharge, and reconnect with nature. This is an 18+ event.
Plein Air Painting by the Pond
$35/person | October 10 | 3-4:30PM | Ages 16+
Step outside the studio and experience the beauty of painting in the open air during this relaxing plein air painting class by the pond. Surrounded by peaceful scenery, you’ll be guided through the process of capturing the colors, light, and textures of the landscape while enjoying the fresh air and calming sounds of nature. Whether you’re a beginner picking up a brush for the first time or an experienced artist looking for creative inspiration, this class offers a welcoming environment to slow down and create. This is a 16+ event.
