Memberships

A membership is more than the free parking. It's more than the exclusive events. It's an adventure experienced together. It's your kiddos falling asleep on the way home from the fun you had all day. It's family traditions and memories that will last a lifetime.

Dino
NEW Dinosaur Exhibit Is Open!

Experience the life of a paleontologist through your child’s eyes in our one-of-a-kind exhibit. Kids can dig for fossils, take them to the lab and identify their find under a microscope, interact with real fossils found in Utah, and learn about kids who have actually discovered dinosaurs. It's a first of its kind exhibit where kids get to be the paleontologist and get to be hands-on with actual fossils and bones!
