Did you know that the Section of Mollusks Assistant Curator Tim Pearce has been conducting monthly behind-the-scenes tours for the public since 2007?
On these tours, participants often learn for the first time that the museum has huge collections and scientists who conduct
research, and they see crowd pleasers such as the killer sea snail, the giant clam, and they look through the shell to see the beating heart of a live land snail.
Check our Section of Mollusks for tour times!
