The best deal is the Annual Plan. 0f course you have unlimited access here, but your membership travels with you for FREE access at other museums and zoos around the USA and around the world.

When you get there in the am - plan your visit around the docent guided tour and the planetarium shows you want to see-- pretty impressive museum !

Daniel Pollard

Rotating exhibits give a great excuse for locals to keep visiting. You can watch fossils being worked on by paleontologists. The planetarium is a blast.

The Annual Pass is the best deal because it is good at MTR and at other museums and zoos around the USA and the world.

Dinosaurs and more. The real things not reproductions. Plus Napoleon ? Yes, as a current exhibit . If you are into that don't miss this exhibit .

Recommend getting the year membership, especially if you live in town so you can visit as many times as you want and not miss a visiting show, lecture, or exhibit .
