 about the museum

If you dig dinosaurs and fancy fossils, take an expedition to the Upper West Side! From giant blue whales to giant Redwoods, there is much to see in this intriguing (if a little outdated in spots) nature museum.

For kids, the dinosaur exhibit has been recently renovated and is both exciting and interactive. A nice rainy day adventure. The old Hayden Planetarium is now the Rose Center for Earth & Space. Click here for info.
