Visited on June 20 for Free Museum Day and had a great experience! There’s so much to see—from dinosaur skeletons to fascinating exhibits on wildlife and the environment. It’s a fun and educational place for all ages. The only disappointment was finding out they no longer have the butterfly exhibit, which I was really looking forward to. Still, definitely worth the visit!

Neat place to visit. Educational and hands on. Dinosoar museum, live animals (smart tortoise, beehive, reptiles, huge frog, and more!), sew your own bag, dig for dinosaur bones, etc. Promotes recycling, saving the bees, learning, and planting trees. Great place to take your kids and to learn something new yourself, and for good price too!
