Fossils. Frogs. Beetles. Bones. Something for every nature lover. Our newest experience offers a rare “backstage” glimpse into the Museum’s collections and a peek into the brand-new Paleontology Center.
This stunning exhibition transforms beach trash into larger-than-life art, highlighting the peril of plastic pollution in our oceans. Meet Dexter the Dungeness crab, Eli the eel, and more as you admire spectacular sculptures crafted from ocean debris.
