→ Check out some of the specimens that have inspired scientific illustrator Rachel Diaz-Bastin’s colorful nudibranchs, Gouldian finches, and frogs.

RESERVED PLANETARIUM PASSES

- Heads-up! Starting January 10, 2019, planetarium passes will be required for the 7:30, 8:30, and (new!) 9:30 pm shows. This will allow more guests to reserve their preferred showtimes in advance and better plan their evenings—and also help us manage high demand for limited planetarium seats.

- Passes are $3 each and may be purchased online or at the ticket window. Since shows do sell out, we always recommend buying in advance.

- The 6:30 pm live show is always free and seats are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
