We’ve been busy getting ready to reopen on Oct. 23, and to welcome you back, we’re offering special pricing for general admission tickets! From Oct. 23–Nov. 20, tickets are just $10 for adults and $7 for youth. We hope you’ll bring the whole family to see what’s changed and reignite your curiosity!
Take a closer look at spiders, and you’ll find there’s more than meets the eye(s). Visit our newest limited-time exhibition, “Spiders: From Fear to Fascination,” and get a new perspective on what makes these remarkable creatures such a fascinating part of our world.
Arachnid activities
If you have a mild case of arachnophobia, don’t worry; this all-ages exhibition offers lots of engaging, safe ways to learn about spiders.
Choose your participation level, from activities at an arm’s length to hands-on interactives:
- Encounter virtual spiders using touch screens, augmented reality and video projections.
- Play sensory and skill games to live like a spider — detect danger (or dinner!) in web vibrations and compete in a dance-off with a peacock spider.
- Design your very own spider and bring it to life on screen.
- Take a closer look at carefully preserved spider and arachnid specimens as well as more than a dozen live species.
