I've been visit the museum since elementary school field trips in the 90's. I loved it then and I love it more now. Each exhibit is very informative and detailed. In the hall of wildlife, you always notice something in the display that you didn't see before. The last time I was there, a docent (I think her name was Carol) was able to give more info about the dinosaur skeletons and displays that I hadn't known before. Just more proof that you never stop learning, even as an adult!

This is a World Class Museum. But we were here for the Children’s Art Exhibit. The museum has numerous outreach programs and one is for artistic children. They provide classes given by collegiate class instructors and they have an art exhibit at the end. The past two years were canceled because of the pandemic so it was awesome that we could go this year.
