LECTURE SERIES

"Masters of the Mesozoic --
When Dinos Ruled!"
12pm to 4pm Each Day
Take a vacation in the world of dinosaurs! Did you know that not all dinosaur species lived at the same time? Visit different levels of the museum, transformed into the three geological periods of the Mesozoic Era:
-- Visit the Triassic Period! Learn about the deserts that dinosaurs called home 220 million years ago.
-- Travel to the Jurassic Period's open woodlands and discover what it was like to be a Stegosaurus.
-- Experience the Be the Dinosaur exhibit, using computer simulation technology to explore dinosaur behavior in the Cretaceous Period.
Immerse yourself in each period by adding your artwork to a progressive mural. Make paper dinosaurs and fossil rubbings to take home. Learn about the inhabitants of the Mesozoic Era to extend your computer simulation time in Be the Dinosaur.
And there's more fun all week:
-- Stop by the Schuyler C. Townson Library to explore museum collections.
-- See "Live Science!" shows, presented at 1pm and 2pm each day.
-- Experience the featured simulator ride in the AdventureZone gallery: "Virtual Time Machine." (A $1/person charge applies for this ride, RMSC members included.)
