What kids will love:

What parents will love:

The museum’s T. Rex skull and other amazing fossils! They’ll also enjoy watching scientists and artists working in the museum’s visible workrooms and labs, stepping into incredible canoes, and getting some energy out in the museum’s play space set up like a local field research campsite.

How their kids can see potential career paths in the sciences and arts in action through the visible workrooms. They’ll also love the chance to get a closer look at the cultures and wildlife that make the Pacific Northwest so special with monumental art and towering biology exhibits.
