Chocolate: Seed to Sweet

September 4 - January 2

This imaginative exhibition takes visitors behind the scenes of chocolate making, from the roots of the cacao tree to candy factory confections. The interactive journey features a giant cacao pod and a 20-foot flower dome that bring to life the history, production and uses of chocolate around the world. The fun, educational experience wraps up inside a miniature factory that showcases the candy-making process.

Look for special weekly programs including classes and demonstrations, and every visitor leaves with a bite of chocolate...sweet!
