Bat Night at the Cultural Centre is where you will discover the secrets of our enigmatic bats. Meet a Flying Fox up close, learn about microbats, listen to ancient local Indigenous stories, find the treasure in the library and get arty in the craft cave. With face painting, snacks from the Gallery Café and our gallery open free of charge, there will be something for everyone. Uncover the secrets of these misunderstood creatures and discover why they’re such a vital part of our world! Brought to you with help from our friends from the Australasian Bat Society, Blue Mountains City Council Healthy Waterways Team, Blue Mountains Conservation Society and Katoomba Library. Don’t forget to dress as a bat and embrace the magic of these winged wonders!
