Exhibit Museum of Natural History
Category: Museum (24 listings)
The Exhibit Museum of Natural History is a dynamic, evolving organization committed to promoting the understanding and appreciation of the natural world and our place in it. We accomplish this through creative educational programs and exhibits for the benefit of the University community, school groups, and the general public. The Museum provides a window onto the research in Natural Sciences conducted at the University of Michigan.
Exhibits include displays on prehistoric life with the most extensive dinosaur exhibits in the state of Michigan, Michigan wildlife, Native American culture, anthropology, geology, and a Planetarium. A new gallery for temporary exhibits was created in 2005.
The Museum offers special activities for adults, families, and children that include public lectures, annual I.D. Days, Halloween parties, Discovery Days, and collaborations with the Huron Valley Girl Scout Council, local libraries, and other organizations.

It may not be the newest and fanciest museum around, but nothing beats spending a few hours there. There's just a nice, comfortable vibe there. We go with friends and make a day of it. My son especially likes the planetarium.

Continually adding displays that reflect cutting-edge research by on-site internationally recognized natural science experts. Comprehensive children's programs and state-of-the art planetarium. An under-appreciated gem in SE Michigan.

The Museum is a dream to so many school aged children.. and the building is beautiful. This museum has brought prehistoric worlds to families for almost a century. After all of that time, it continues to come up with new ways to gather community involvement.
