NEW Exhibit: I Dig Dinos

See the world of paleontology through a child’s eyes at our new exhibit, I Dig Dinos! Dig up dinosaur fossils in a huge dig pit, prepare the bones to be shipped back to the lab in field jackets, transport the dinosaur bones to a child-sized research laboratory (complete with kid-sized lab coats, real fossils, and microscopes)! Explore over 2,000 square feet of interactive, hands-on fun with real fossils and bones and learn about life millions of years ago.

Exhibits

Interactive exhibit galleries focus on creativity, collaboration, discovery, problem solving, design, and experiential education through art, science, and literacy.
