To avoid getting cabin fever, GoggleWorks programs team has put together a scavenger hunt for you to explore art all around you in the City of Reading! 

How many of the following items can you find in The Greater Reading Area? We have 16 challenges for you and some bonus opportunities! Tag @goggleworks when you post so we can see what you’ve discovered! This scavenger hunt is designed to allow you to explore Reading while observing social distancing. Please stay safe.
