What does the rest of the season have in store for you? Join us in summoning the spirit of Harry Potter: A History of Magic and visit one of our Victorian-era fortune-tellers. Use popular mystic games from the turn of the century to help our Living Historians learn what your future holds by reading palms, apple seeds, and tea leaves!

Return on Sunday for a full afternoon celebrating Harry Potter with History of Magic Family Days, where you can decorate a magical wand, practice secret codes, and ‘brew’ a potion!

Advance registration not required. This program does not include admission to Harry Potter: A History of Magic. Click here to purchase tickets to the exhibition.
