Carnegie Museum of Natural History

Free with museum admission

Colors and light play important roles in the natural world, and things aren’t always how they appear! Explore the visual features animals use to blend in and stand out. Inspect beautiful minerals and gems that dazzle, and how they change when different types of light are cast. Watch iridescent insects change color before your eyes. Find nature’s rainbow, and more, as we examine light, color, and patterns in the natural world around us.

Museum Admission is Required to Attend This Event
Get tickets and select Dec. 14 for the date of your visit.
